Mirror driver not activated

Post by philled »

On my Windows 10 PC I have downloaded and installed the mirror driver so I can get support for two monitors. UltraVNC is running as a service. When I view the UltraVNC Server Property Page and click the "Check the Mirror Driver" button it says:
1.00.22
Driver found.
Driver version OK
Driver Not Activated, is the viewer current connected?
The "Mirror Driver" box is ticked and I'm viewing over a remote UltraVNC connection.

I see this in the WinVNC.log file which seems to indicate the problem but how do I fix it?

Please use 1.2.2.2 this is optimized for multiple monitors.

win10 now use ddengine instead of the mirror driver.

Ok, so if I install 1.2.2.2 I don't need to install the mirror driver on Windows 10, is that correct?
