Moving credentials to another vault, not losing their ID/Reference

At the moment when a credential entry is moved to another Vault, it gets a new ID and all references where it was used in other entries are no longer working. It would be great if when credential entries are moved, they keep their IDs and are still connected to any entries they were used in the source Vault. At the moment, they lose thwir connection and the entries can's use the credentials anymore, but you don't see it on the entry until you try to use or edit it. (Then is a pop-up the credentials have been deleted)

Compact Layout

I did an update to the newest version. But I noticed now that the UI, everything is a lot bigger. Below is a screenshot of the previous version. With this increase, I have less pixels available in my remote session. Is it possible to revert this? Or to have a setting "compact ui"? I already use the simplified ribbon to have it as small as possible. But this version increased the height a lot. [image]

Telnet session: cannot disable BINARY negotiation; login fails against Ultrix telnetd (Enter key handling)

Product: Remote Desktop Manager (Windows), version 2026.3.8.0 64 bit (PreJIT) Session type: Telnet, embedded (tabbed) Server: DEC Ultrix 4.5 (VAX) telnetd Problem Login through the RDM Telnet session always fails, or hangs, on Ultrix telnetd. The same server works fine from PuTTY in Telnet mode. What a packet capture shows - RDM proposes IAC WILL BINARY and IAC DO BINARY, and the server accepts both. - With "Return key sends a new line instead of a carriage return" ticked, Enter is sent as CR LF (0d 0a). With it unticked, Enter is sent as a bare CR (0d). - A bare CR leaves login stuck after the username: no Password: prompt. - CR LF reaches the Password: prompt, but login then reports "Login incorrect" with the correct password. Analysis Once BINARY is active, BSD-derived telnetd (including Ultrix) turns off CR/LF translation. The CR in CR LF then stays inside the line, so login receives "username<CR>" and "password<CR>" instead of the clean strings. The server also stops adding CRs on output. This is consistent with what the capture shows. I have not found an option to turn off BINARY, or to send LF only for Enter. Remapping Enter to another CTRL-J in the Keyboard tab had no effect on the bytes sent. Requests 1. A per-entry option to disable telnet BINARY negotiation (or make it opt-in). 2. Or an Enter-key option to send LF only, or CR NUL, that is honoured for keyboard input and for the autologin (User/Password prompt string) feature. 3. Ensure the Keyboard tab key map is applied to Enter in Telnet sessions.

"Submit a support ticket" dialog window

These Improvements have been suggested by a customer: Issues with the "Submit a support ticket" dialog window: First issue: it should not be a dialog but and independent window, so that it doesn't block working with RDM during writing the bug report - I need to use menus, options etc. to check things I need to report. Second issue: it should allow submitting screenshots (annotated), e.g. pasting them using CTRL+V or select files from disk. Pasting them like I do here by uploading to cloud drive is very secure for me, but consumes a lot of time.

SSH - Bold mode

Hello, I would like to request an option in the embedded terminal to render bold text using an actual bold font weight, the way PuTTY does. Current behaviour: the Bold Mode setting offers "Change font", "Change colour" and "Change font and colour", but even with "Change font and colour" selected the glyphs are not rendered with a real bold weight. In practice bold text is only distinguished by the bold colour variants of the palette. Changing Font quality does not help, and the same happens with fonts that ship a proper bold face (Consolas, Cascadia Mono, JetBrains Mono). Why it matters: bold is used heavily by real-world tooling - ls output, man pages, vim and other TUIs, prompts, log highlighting. Losing the weight distinction makes long terminal sessions noticeably harder to read. Request: when Bold Mode includes "Change font", please load and render the bold face of the selected font family, falling back to synthetic emboldening only if no bold face exists. Context: this used to work correctly when PuTTY was available as an external engine. With the PuTTY entry type now removed, the embedded terminal is the only option, so this gap has become more visible. Thank you. Marco Trapanese

Windows Dialog Box Recognition

Please revert to displaying the previous information in the Windows dialog boxes. Previously, you could identify RDM boxes by their display names. This is no longer possible in newer versions of RDM. [image] [image]

Option to force a specific value for "Clear clipboard delay" using GPOs

This value is set at 10 seconds by default. That is WAY too short. I want to set it to 90 seconds for all users but it seems that is not possible using group policy.

Customize the Actions Panel

It would be great to be able to customize the Actions Panel of an entry. For example, I would like to add the "Continuous Ping" in a RDP Connection Entry in the Actions Panel. [image]

Integration

Field-level permission to allow editing Tags only (without full Edit rights on the entry)

This is a customer request (case 00129997). Currently, Remote Desktop Manager's permission system works at the entry level only (View, Connect, Add, Edit, Delete, Security, Attachments, etc.). There is no way to grant a user or role permission to edit just the Tags field on an entry without also granting the general Edit permission, which allows editing every other property (host, credentials, connection settings, etc.). Use case: our customer has a team responsible for keeping tags up to date on RDP entries (e.g., reflecting which customers are installed on a given instance). This team should only ever touch the Tags field, but since Edit is all-or-nothing, they've ended up making unintended changes to other entry properties, causing operational issues. Requested feature: a distinct "Edit Tags" permission (or similar field-level permission) that can be granted independently of the general Edit permission, so a role can be restricted to tag updates only.

Quality of Life

Restore the option to hide the session tab bar entirely (Windows client, 2026.3+)

A customer reported that, before upgrading to RDM 2026.3, they could completely hide the tab bar displayed above or beside an open session. This allowed them to reclaim additional screen space for the session view. Since upgrading, the customer can no longer find this option. Under File > Settings > User Interface > Tab Bar , the available settings only allow users to change the tab position or enable Shrink tabs to fit . The customer would like the ability to completely hide the tab bar to be restored for users who do not need it and prefer to maximize the available session space. Affected platform: RDM Windows Affected version: 2026.3.x

Ability to create per user Variables.

Remote desktop Manager has the ability to create Custom Variables, and that is a really great feature for large deployments. However, it would be awesome for a user to have the ability to create their own Variables unique to them. For example in my Cyberark Deployment, there is a "Privileged account" setting that needs to be specified. However the entry can not be user specific (Design flaw, already opened a ticket on that) However if users could create unique variables we could say use the variable $CA_User_Admin$ in the record then create the setting such that that variable, $CA_User_admin$ can be set to the account that user would use. This is just an example of what could be done. Would be great if these kind of Variables could also exist in a users private vault.

Is it possible to use the mouse wheel to scroll through tabs ?

Hi, would it be possible to allow to use mouse wheel to scroll tabs left and right ? Like in Notepad++ for instance. On this example: placing the mouse on 1 tab (without clicking) and scrolling the wheel Up would slide the tabs to the left, to access the first tabs. And moving the wheel Down would slide the tabs to the right, to access the tabs to the end. [image] Currently, when there are several tabs opened, it is not practical to access the first tabs, or the last. You could click on the little arrow at the right end, but the connections are sorted by name, so it is hard to identify recognize the order and find the first or last for instance. I know you can display the tabs on multiple rows, but then you lose a lot of space. Ideally, using the mouse wheel to slide to the left or right would be really helpful. Note: it would not switch to the previous or next tabs, it would only scroll the tabs list without changing the current connection. Thank you

Improvement of AI Assitent Integration

Hello my fellow RDM Users and Adminstrators :) I came across the AI Assistent integration with some problems. It is quite not flexible at all when it comes to Local LLM Hosting. And by that i dont mean a localhost Ollama. I mean bigger appliances for companies. We are hosting an Ollama behind a OpenwebUI that uses API Tokens but they cant be used in the "Ollama" configuration context. When i try to bind it via the OpenAI config context there are enforced models, so i also cant use them here. It would be great to get an universal useable configuration context for more complex Local AI Hosting systems. Thank you in advance

SFTP in SSH enhance failure handling

If someone tries to copy data from their local machine to the SSH host using drag and drop, no error message appears if the permissions do not allow it. A message would be helpful in this case.

Customizable Ribbon Button Order

Hello, I would like to request a feature that would allow users to customize the ribbon and rearrange certain actions based on their workflow. Specifically, I would like the ability to swap the positions of the "Copy one-time password" button and the "Copy to YubiKey" button. Since I used "Copy one-time password" because I don't have a YubiKey, having the option to place it in a more prominent or easily accessible position would improve usability and efficiency. Ideally, this could be implemented as a customizable ribbon configuration where users can reorder, hide, or prioritize ribbon buttons according to their preferences. Thank you for considering this enhancement. Best regards, Martin

Ip Address List - no subfolders grouping

Would be nice to have a way to sort the ip host list without any subfolders group. I use the dynamic search in conjuntion with the tag name search and i love it. If i try to order the results by Ip Address i cannot have a list ordered from first to last ip, i can get only partial lists for each folder where the tag name occurr. The goal would be to have a single list directly into RDM avoiding the manipulation in an external software like Excel. Thanks a lot.

Let an entry restrict which credentials appear in the credential prompt

Current behavior When an entry (or a Host template) uses Linked (vault) credentials pointed at a Password List or a folder, the prompt at launch shows every row/entry in that list. There is no way to narrow it per entry. Problem As an MSP I keep one Password List per client with every user's login. When I open a workstation I only ever want two options: that machine's end user and the shared admin account. Instead I get the full list of 20+ rows and have to scroll or type into the search box on every launch. The current workarounds (a sub-list or subfolder per machine, or a separate RDP entry per credential) multiply entries and defeat the point of centralizing the list. Request On any entry whose Credentials are Linked (vault) to a Password List or folder, add an optional "Allowed credentials" selector: a multi-select of the rows/entries in that list. At launch, the prompt shows only the selected rows. If exactly one is selected, connect without prompting. Nice-to-haves - Same selector on Host entries, so host-launched templates with Inherited credentials receive the filtered set. - Allow a shared entry (e.g. the admin account) to be pinned so it always appears first. Benefit One credential list per client, one entry per machine, two clicks to connect as either the user or the admin. No duplicated credentials, no per-machine folders. [image]

Show Check-Out Status inside Smart Folders in RDM

Hi everyone, We use Remote Desktop Manager (RDM) together with Devolutions Server and rely heavily on shortcuts within RDM. The background: for each customer we have linked VMs (jump hosts) that have all the necessary tools installed. On top of that, we make extensive use of the automatic check-out feature , so we can immediately see which jump hosts are already in use (occupied). This generally works very well. However, due to the growing number of customers and jump hosts, we now have a very large number of entries, which is starting to have a negative impact on performance . We've therefore been thinking about maintaining the VMs in only one central location in RDM and displaying them elsewhere using Smart Folders (or possibly something else that fits better). This works, but unfortunately the check-out status is not shown inside the Smart Folder (the red marking that indicates an entry is checked out, which for us means "occupied"). My questions: Would it be possible for future RDM versions to also display the check-out status within Smart Folders? Or are there better/alternative solutions to achieve this? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Best regards

Vault-level read-only permission for viewing configured group permissions

Currently, the "Configured permissions" tab on an entry or folder is only visible to users who have the "Edit permissions" right. Users without this right can only see their own effective rights under "My permissions." We would like to request a separate permission e.g. "View permissions" that would let a user or user group view the Configured permissions list. Use case: We want to give certain groups (vault admin groups) visibility into how access is currently configured (for auditing and documentation purposes) without giving them the ability to change any permission settings, which should remain restricted to administrators. Aim here is to give creater visibility to the current permission sets to vault admins directly. This would follow the same pattern already used elsewhere in RDM, where View and Edit are separate, independently assignable rights (e.g. View vs. Edit on entries).
