Suggestions on Grammar Highlighting and Code Highlighting

Is it possible to set syntax or command highlighting separately for each terminal session connection? Currently, there is only one global setting, but the keywords vary for different devices, which is very inconvenient. Please consider this. Thank you very much.

Custom Terminal Emulator for SSH Sessions

Hello, Not sure if anyone has suggested this yet or not (I couldn't find any threads mentioning it) but I think it would be really cool if we could be able to customize the terminal emulator used by the SSH functionality in RDM. Currently it appears it uses PuTTY (or something based on PuTTY), which is OK, and I know there are some settings (similar to those available in PuTTY) that we can use to customize behavior. But I use CYGWIN all the time which uses MinTTY - I much prefer that emulator for various reasons. Is there any chance we could add support for a custom terminal emulator (or just add the MinTTY emulator as a choice we could choose in the settings)? Thanks in advance for the consideration, and Happy New Year! Best regards.

a year ago

Hello, Just wanted to follow back up here, as I believe I found the root cause and solution for this. The TLDR is to make sure your terminal "bold mode" setting in RDM is set "change font and color" and then make sure your "background" setting in vim is set "dark". For more details on how I came to this conclusion, read on... So PuTTY (and RDM's emulator as well it seems) have a "bold mode" setting that determines what changes they apply to bold text - it can be either "change font", "change color" or "change font and color": [image] This setting can be configured at the SSH entry level or in the local RDM settings, or you can even change it on a per-session basis via the font and color toolbar buttons while connected to an SSH session. Something I did not know until today is there is a "bold" variant for each color which contains a different shade of that color (we can see this in the color palette settings) - if the "bold mode" setting is set to either "change color" or "change font and color", then it will use these "bold shades" instead of the regular colors for bolded text. Thinking about this and the symptoms I had been seeing, I realized the issue was due to the bold text not being properly applied. So changing the "bold mode" setting noted above to "change font and color" worked to fix the issue in the basic terminal. However text was still dim in vim - after some poking around I realized the "background" setting in vim was set to "light" instead of "dark" for some reason; once I changed it to "dark" then the bold text was properly applied. To do this permanently I added a line to my .vimrc on the server: set background=dark Hopefully this could help someone else trying to solve the same problem. Best regards,

Option to pin the Navigation tab when it is docked as a document tab

Posted on behalf of: Dan vo1 "I prefer using the Navigation panel as a tab in the main workspace instead of keeping it docked on the left side. This allows me to maximize the available screen space for remote sessions. I also don't need the Dashboard, so ideally the Navigation tab should act as my main starting point. The Navigation tab should remain the leftmost tab, with new sessions opening to its right. Ideally, there should be an option to pin the Navigation tab in a fixed position. Desired Workflow My preferred layout is: - Navigation displayed as a tab in the main workspace. - Navigation remains the leftmost tab. - New sessions open to the right of the Navigation tab. - Editing entries does not change the currently active tab. - No Dashboard required. This layout provides significantly more usable screen space while still allowing quick access to the Navigation tree. Request: Please consider allowing the Navigation tab to remain fixed in position and retain focus after editing entries."

SCP upload not uploading entire file

I've trying to upload a 444MB file using SCP from my Windows PC to a Ubuntu server into the /tmp folder. The upload says it's completed but the target file is only 151.4MB big and won't unzip (not surprised if it's not the entire file). Any ideas? Later... I managed to transfer the file using the Windows scp.exe command line utility but still like to know why RDP is struggling. Later still... hmm, it's when I try to upload to the /tmp folder. Works fine when I upload to the /home/system folder. Weird. [image]

IP-List: More ways for group the view

Hello everyone, We’re already making extensive use of the dynamic IP list. While the list requires very little maintenance, we’d like to see a few more grouping and sorting options. Example: Grouping is currently limited to the folder structure. We have many devices that are located within the same folder but are on different subnets. It would be ideal if we could still have a view that shows all devices within each subnet. The benefit: This way, we can see which IP addresses are actually in use per subnet and don't have to keep searching for them. Thank you. Best regards, John

[SSH Terminal] Add SFTP

Hi, would it be possible (or am I just not seeing it) to add the same SFTP-Server-Start option that exists in the "SFTP" Item to the "SSH Terminal" SFTP section to be able to use it for example for vCenter like mentioned in this request? https://forum.devolutions.net/topics/52585/how-to-get-sftp-working-with-vcenter SFTP: [image] SSH-TERMINAL: [image] SSH-Terminal-SFTP-Button to start the connection that I want to use: [image]

Tabgroup focuses on first tab instead of last opened or last used

Hi Team, When I click on a tab group, RDM focuses on the first tab instead of last opened or last used. Is it possible to configure RDM to focus on the last opened or last used tab (i vote for last used tab)? I am using RDM for a while and I think it was working before. I am currently using 2025.1.30.0 64-bit Thankyou, Rohith.

Cycle Through Tabs in MRU Order

Hello, It would be very helpful if we had the ability to cycle through tabs in their most recently used order instead of the order displayed on the tab bar. This is also in-line with how most tabbed applications cycle (or at least they provide an option to cycle in MRU even if it is not the default). From reading the thread here it sounds like this used to cycle in the order the tabs were opened but then it was changed to the tab display order at some point. So if it is possible to add an option to cycle in MRU order (perhaps two additional configurable keyboard shortcuts for "select next MRU tab" and "select previous MRU tab" in the shortcut list, also perhaps with an option to set the limit for most MRU tabs that would be "remembered" for this functionality) - that would be very much appreciated! Thanks!

Navigation Toolbar

It would be helpful to create a toolbar in the Navigation section above where is says Name. Example, I tend to use the "collapse all" a lot, instead of right clicking and click on collapse all or Ctrl - adding a button to the toolbar would be helpful. Or create a toolbar at the top which can be used globally to add a button for any feature RDM provides including custom buttons that can link to scripts, etc.

HTML bookmarks import

Not sure why this feature was deprecated, certainly a lot easier that needing to export HTML to CSV then use the CSV wizard to import, why make things more challenging?

WinGet release channels / version branches for RDM and Devolutions Server compatibility

Hello Devolutions Team, we are deploying Remote Desktop Manager for Windows centrally through Microsoft Intune and WinGet. The current WinGet package ID is: Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager This works very well for installation and upgrades. However, there is one challenge for enterprise environments using Devolutions Server: According to the RDM / Devolutions Server compatibility model, the first two version segments need to remain compatible. For example, when our Devolutions Server is on the 2026.3.x release branch, we need to keep all RDM clients on the 2026.3.x branch as well. We would like to automatically deploy maintenance releases such as: 2026.3.10 → 2026.3.12 → 2026.3.13 → 2026.3.x but prevent an automatic upgrade to another release branch such as: 2026.4.x or: 2027.x.x With the current WinGet package ID, there is no straightforward way for an enterprise administrator to define: "Always update to the latest available 2026.3.x release, but never automatically cross the 2026.3 branch boundary." This makes automated update mechanisms such as WinGet AutoUpdate difficult to use safely with RDM when Devolutions Server compatibility must be maintained. Would you consider providing an officially supported release-channel mechanism for WinGet? Possible approaches could be: 1. Separate WinGet package IDs for supported release branches, for example: Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager.2026.3 Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager.2026.4 or 2. Another officially supported mechanism that allows enterprise administrators to pin RDM to a release branch while still automatically receiving maintenance releases within that branch. Our ideal enterprise workflow would be: Devolutions Server: 2026.3.x RDM clients: Automatically update to the latest 2026.3.x version. When Devolutions Server is deliberately upgraded to the next compatible branch, the administrator would then move the clients to the corresponding new RDM release channel. This would make RDM much easier to manage through Microsoft Intune, WinGet, WinGet AutoUpdate, and similar enterprise software-management solutions while maintaining the required server/client compatibility. Thank you for considering this request. Thank you. Best regards, Johann

Automated HTML Export of Passwords

Hello, We are currently managing our passwords using Devolutions Server. We would like to export an HTML file to another location as a backup in case our environment needs to be shut down, so that we still have access to our passwords. It would be very helpful if we could schedule a task to automatically export the passwords to an encrypted HTML file, protected with a specific password, and save it to a designated folder — similar to how the Backup Manager works. Thanks in advance for your help. Best regards, Matthis

Terminal Run As "Net Only"

Hello I'd like to add some terminal (PowerShell for eg) connections that run as domain users that are on a different domain then the computer running RDM. Currently I open shells/apps like this in Windows using runas /user:user@domain /netonly "pwsh.exe" to start the process with the network credentials of another user while still running as the local user. However when configuring the following, I get an error as the domain is not trusted by my local machine: PowerShell terminal (local) > Run as tab > Run as mode: Default > Credentials: {Remote domain creds} Error: The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship. Note this error is expected with the current implementation/options. This feature request is to expand the Run as options to include the equivalent of the /netonly argument on runas.exe.

CyberArk/Idira SIA integration with SSMS

Currently in RDM the CyberArk SIA connections are only supported for RDP and SSH sessions. Within our environment we are starting to use SIA for SSMS connections as well, and it would be great if RDM was capable of leveraging this as well

Adoption of Delinea Platform authentication flow

We are currently evaluating and migrating from Delinea Secret Server Cloud to the Delinea Platform. Through testing, we identified that RDM works correctly for: Native Secret Server users Hybrid users that exist in both Secret Server and Delinea Platform and are properly mapped However, RDM does not work the same way for native Delinea Platform users. For native Platform users, RDM is unable to obtain the Secret Server token required for Secret Server integration. Instead of adding the authentication token, RDM redirects the user to a web page, preventing the same seamless experience available to Secret Server and hybrid users. As organizations migrate fully to the Delinea Platform, an increasing number of users will be created directly in the Platform and will no longer have corresponding Secret Server identities. These users currently cannot leverage the existing Delinea integration in RDM. Requested Enhancement Add native Delinea Platform authentication support to RDM so that users authenticated through the Delinea Platform can: Browse secrets Search secrets Retrieve secrets Authenticate without requiring a Secret Server identity Use Delinea Platform SSO directly within RDM Business Impact Organizations adopting the Delinea Platform are expected to transition away from traditional Secret Server-only identities. Without native Platform support, RDM functionality becomes limited for newly onboarded users and future Platform-first deployments. Supporting Delinea Platform identities directly would ensure that RDM remains fully compatible with Delinea's strategic platform direction and provide a consistent user experience regardless of whether a user is: Secret Server native Hybrid Delinea Platform native Additional Context Testing confirmed that Platform-native users can successfully authenticate to the Delinea Platform, but RDM currently requires access to a Secret Server token that these users do not receive. As a result, the integration behaves differently than it does for Secret Server or hybrid accounts.

Why can't the custom settings of the AI assistant be customized for the model content? My AI is provided by myself and the model type is custom. However, the current custom model settings cannot be saved. After I save them, they become blank. I request that all AI providers allow the model name to be customized for each model type. Thank you.

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.

Asset Verwaltung für USV/UPS

Da wir auch die USV´s/UPS unserer Kunden in einem mehrjärigen Zyklus warten müssen, wäre es für uns sinnvoll diese Zyklen über den RDM verwalten zu könnne. Wäre doch sicherlich cool, wenn man hier Geräte mit einen Wartungstermin hinterlegen könnten und ab dem entsprechenden Datum dann auch ein Hinweis erschient. Könnte man auch für andere Geräte wie Alarmanlagen und sonstige Wartungsbedürftige Assets verwenden.
