Hello,If the ID is generated every time the program starts then being able to start with Windows combined with ''Private custom password' feature is not full 'Unattended access' feature.In order to have full Unattended access the ID needs to be the same every time the UltraViewer starts.ThanksMicky
How does this work?I set it up on my laptop and my home PC (both Win 10), on the home PC I ticked the start with windows option. The idea is that I leave my home PC on and I can then log in from my laptop - wherever I am.I make a note of the ID and password on my PC and reboot.I can't log in from the laptop says it says:Cannot connect, your partner is not opening UltraViewer or do not connected to internet now.There is an UltraViewer service running on the PC, but each time I open the application I get a new password. So I set up a personal password on the PC. As soon as I manually opened the app I can now log in from my laptop using the new password (different at each app opening) or the “personal password”. I reboot again and try to log on with the personal password – same problem.It ONLY works if I manually open UltraViewer on my PC, so much for unattended operation?Do you have any instructions, help or just a comment?
I'm havng the same problem as other users here: Ultraviewer (version 6.1.6 on May 2018) does not start with windows, I have to manually start it. Will this be fixed soon? It would be really useful!
It won't let me enter a custompassword. It says: "Requires Administrator privilege". So I run as Administrator but it still refuses to let me enter a custom password :-(
I am trying to change the following items but I cannot change them:a. Custom Passwordb. Run UltraViewer with WindowsI am using an ADMIN userid but still cannot change these items. :-(
Is there a way to have a STATIC ID to be used with the Custom Password? We use UltraViewer v6.2.97 but in our case this unit is in a very remote location. The remote access computer is program to reboot every 12 hours to clear any corrupt issues at this remote site. During this FORCE reboot the Partner ID has changed - thus locking us out to connect for remote access. If we remove the force 12 hour reboot - the remote computer may hold the Partner ID for a couple of weeks or until a power loss occurs in this desolate area - Placing UPC power source that can run the remote pc for 48 hours did not resolve the Partner ID change. And putting a security camera on the login screen did not help because the login window with the ID viewable may not be visible or hidden behind a windows info window that a mouse click is needed to review the UltraViewer login screen. If the IS was static - then remote access flows thru seamlessly - as we would have to make the seven hour travel to the location of this site.
Every time I am finished using it still running in the background even I manually go to task manager then end it when I reopen my pc is still running and sometimes my screen dont go back to my background, it stays blue please fix that your software is very good lite and efficient but those things kinda annoying. What I do is uninstall it every time I'm not using it and install it when I need it.
