Unlock user accounts
There's currently no way to unlock a user account other than resetting the password. The last time this was posted looks to be about six years ago, and yet this basic, basic feature is still missing. Any chance this will ever be added?
Screenconnect launch time needs extending
When I connect to a client, the screenconnect app sometimes takes more than a couple of seconds to launch. The browser GUI only allows three (3) seconds for the actual app to launch and many times the app takes slightly more than that... meaning that it then defaults to downloading the software AGAIN, even though the app eventually launches. This happens usually once a day meaning I'm constantly downloading the screenconnect application over and over, even though it's working fine.
If the browser application could wait just 2-3 more seconds until it makes a decision... it seems like 3 second default just isn't enough. OR could this be something that we can set locally to decide how long that wait time is.
Add Settings to disable Acquire Wake Lock globally
We need to disable to feature globally.
Turn off CLIPBOARD for host passes
If you share a session, the clipboard can pass through to the connected host passes clipboard, potentially giving them passwords in clear text. This also works in reverse where you can obtain passwords you shouldn't. So, a by default no clipboard for host passes would help to alleviate the need to manually turn off clipboard.
Blank guest monitor cutomize behavior per user
We should be able to set blank guest monitor as the default behavior in a per device or per user basis and not only system wide. Alternatively being able to set a disconnect buffer of a few seconds or minutes after disconnect to disable all feature in the event of a network fluctuation.
Users confused by instructions when setting up a support session
Please remove "Joining" header and "Joining your session..." text from download screen when setting up a support session. Users think this is a sign to stop reading and sit there quietly waiting for something to happen. Also, please change text that reads "Click on the file in the bottom left corner of your browser to start launching the app." as all browsers currently in use by our clients now place the downloads button in the top right.
Android Unattended Access
This would be beneficial when using a Android device as a door sign for several conference rooms to be able to remote in and change something without have to remove it from the mount, click allow and then hang it back up. Unattended access would avoid all that and I could change several of the signs in minutes instead of have to run to each one.
audio settings - allow more control for privacy
I think we should put this on the “wish list” – this should be done more granually – i.e
- Allow for settings for
- Disabling the TECHNICIAN from enabling remote client microphone (the remote client should still be able to enable his own microphone)
- Or disable its use completely as is on both
- Or allow all use as is now
- These options should dbe done per type – ie. Remote access, remote support, or meeting ( as different settings should be set, just like the “default” setting exists)
Access to Google Chrome from Backstage
We would love to have access to Chrome from Backstage Sessions.
Unfortunately, Chrome does not behave well in backstage mode. Backstage is a limited console and not all applications will run or run well. Some partners have had success with portable browsers run from the toolbox, and the browser that we have found works best in backstage is Firefox, which is available on the backstage taskbar if it is installed on the machine.
