Allow option to run the built-in tools as administrator

Looking at the "Command-Line" entry.... there is a tab "Run as" with a checkbox " Run as Administrator" Can this be added as an option for the built-in tools? Right now, the only alternative for me is to build everything from scratch and lose the clean default tools. This seems needlessly cumbersome. Under the hood, the built-in tools appear to be command-line entries so why is the option able to be changed there but not in the built-in tools? The lack of this option also creates other problems as stated below. When I create a new tool, it just puts it under "Template" .... I do not find a place to sort created tools into categories. I created a new example "tool/script" as shown below. This does appear like it will work, but again, seems messy long-term to re-create duplicate built-in entries. Also, when I create a new tool, it just puts it under "Template" .... I do not find a place to sort created tools into categories. I did see where I could "turn off" the specific items... but this again just seems like the process would be Duplicate manually (since I can't seem to copy) the built-in tools Turn off the tools in Settings > Tools > Available Tools Have multiple re-created tools unsorted in a list under "Templates" [image] [image] Thank you for any improvements you can make with this! :-)

Additional fields in Passwordstate window

Hello, I am using Passworstate as passwords vault and there are two annoying "issues" in the selecting password window: I can not know what server I selecting password for If there are multiple password for same server, I can not know what I am selecting 1 Starting from this window [image] I for example I have to reopen several sessions after a restart, I can not see what server the password I am selecting is related to. It might me very useful to put in this windows the name of the session is related to. 2 If I have to select a password from a server that has more than one password saved, I can not see what username I am selecting [image] so place username together to the name of the password might be the definitive solution. Thanks in advance. Bye. Alessio

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

SSH - Hide Transfer Windows After Successful Transfers

Good morning. I think not just myself, but anyone who uses the Folder Transfers for SSH sessions would very much appreciate having the transfers window clear and hide automatically after xxx seconds, instead of just having them keep stacking up (especially when doing a lot of transfers and having to keep track of what is transferred each time). [image] Maybe we can add something here under the SFTP tab for "Clear & Hide Successful Transfers Time" in seconds? [image]

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)

Action Icons without Text

Hello Team, Please give us the option to display the icons in the action bar without text labels . Like This: [image] I am aware that the action bar can be resized until only icons are shown. However, in that mode, the icons become very small and are difficult to use on large displays. [image] A much better solution would be to allow users to display the icons without text while keeping the larger icon size that is normally used when the labels are visible. Ideally, the icon size should even be configurable, allowing each user to choose the size that best fits their screen and personal preferences. This would improve usability, make better use of available screen space, and provide a more modern and flexible user experience. Kind regards, Andreas

Show mouse cursor option in automatically initiated session recordings

Request from a client Currently, the mouse cursor is visible/recorded when a session recording is started manually, but this option isn't available (or the cursor doesn't appear) when the recording is triggered automatically. For teams that rely on automatic recording (e.g., for shadowing/monitoring or compliance purposes), this makes the recordings significantly less useful, since it's often impossible to follow what the user was pointing at or interacting with. We'd like to request that the "show mouse cursor" setting be made available and applied to automatically initiated recordings as well, so both recording modes produce consistent, equally useful output.

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

Restore systray minimised RDM by clicking on pinned icon

This suggestion is one of those "nice to have" features. If the main interface of the app is minimised to system tray and there are no active RDM windows open, clicking on a pinned-to-the-taskbar icon for RDM should restore the main window from system tray. As it is, clicking the RDM pinned taskbar icon, while the main app is minimised to system tray, does nowt nothing.

Remote Windows Services

it would be really nice if we got a new type of Entry to manage remote Windows Servers Services, instead of opening that server via RDP and manage its service within the session,

Moving entries from one vault to another (into folders)

When we move entries from one vault to another, it’s just possible to select the vault we want to copy the entries to. It creates the same structure as we have in the Vault that we are copying it from. It would be great, if we could select the destination folder, we want to copy the entries to, without creating a new structure in the destination vault.

Online\Offline Icons?

For the life of my I swear I used to be able to enable an option that shows the icon next to an asset as green for online or red for offline. Anyone able to help point me in the right direction?

Recommended Answer

7 days ago

Hi mcmasterslj , What you're describing sounds like the Is Online feature. Here's how to enable it: Go to File → Background Services → Is Online . Check Enable check for server availability . Once enabled, RDM will ping (or port scan, depending on your detection method) each entry's host. Per our documentation, hosts that are not reachable are shown in red in the tree view. You can also set Execute automatic check every X minutes so this runs on a schedule instead of manually. Under Online detection , choose between Ping or Port scan as the method used to determine availability. Could you confirm a couple of things so we can make sure this matches what you're after: Which RDM version are you currently running, and which workspace type are you using (DVLS, SQL, or Cloud)? Once you enable this and the host comes back online, does the icon turn green in your tree view? I want to confirm that on your version, since I can only confirm the red "unavailable" state from our documentation. If it's still not behaving as expected after enabling this, feel free to share a screenshot of your Background Services settings and we'll dig further. For reference, here's our documentation on this feature: https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/file/background-services Best regards,

wrap connection fail message

When using Remote Desktop, if the connection fails, there is a message in a box next to buttons to try again, close, etc. The box has plenty of room to show any message, but it only uses the top line and a scroll bar. It would be much more useable if it would instead just wrap the text so that we can see it.

Make the CSV import/export delimiter configurable

Customer request Would it be possible to make the CSV import/export delimiter configurable? If I want to open the exported CSV file directly in Microsoft Excel, it needs to use a semicolon (;) as the delimiter instead of a comma (,) . Having the option to select the delimiter during export and import would make the feature much easier to use in environments where Excel expects semicolon-separated CSV files.

Permission to traverse folders

We currently rolling out the RDM with around 10k entries in DB. As we are enterprise we upload/sync all entries using PS and create group structures accordingly One issue we bumped into is the complex way to delegate view permission to subfolders without seeing the content of the root and upper level folders. You provide guide on how to do it but in organisation with complex structures and numerous systems this is not really applicable Example: Root: Folder A Folder B Folder B1 Folder B11 Folder B2 Folder B3 If we want to allow certain team to only see the folder B11 sessions, we have to - add View permissions to Folder B , B1, B11 - deny View permissions in Folder B2, B3 and any new folder which gets automatically created, which kinda beats the purpose of Automation. What would be great if you come up with feature allowing to traverse folders without seeing the content example: - add View on folder B11 would automatically assign traverse on all bellow folders That would greatly simplify the permissions handling and usability in large environments

Type Clipboard: Enhancements

Hello, not often, but every now and then, my colleagues need to type a username/password. This is mainly needed in external applications/windows where Ctrl+V does not work. I'm testing macros, especially: File → Settings → User Interface → Keyboard → Shortcut macros I want to avoid every user having to configure this in their own RDM. I would also like to avoid setting the Allow password in variable flag in every RDM entry for every user. Is there a way to enhance the existing possibility of typing clipboard text by adding a configurable delay? [image] With a default delay, the RDM user could switch the focus to another application or shell, so RDM could type the text there. Regards, Daniel

Right click object, but need IP

This might already be there, but it like that you can right click an object to get name, username, password and other information. But I cannot get the IP address. This is important too for networking needs. [image]

Password List improvements

Hi team, I'd like the following improvements to password list (the credential type "password list"): The ability to easily add/edit multiple password entries in password list. There are scenarios when some credentials are generated in bulk for many machines/services etc. for example by using the RDM's Password Generator. I'd like to be able to add them all to the single Password list entry (while preserving entries already existing in the password list). Maybe an editable table would do. Adding ~40 passwords by opening dialog window for every single one of them is extremely ineffective. It feels like using ERP software from '90s. The ability to easily bulk import password list data from CSV/XLS etc. Currently by importing "credentials" it wants to create 40 separate entries for me, not a single password list with 40 password entries. [Update]: I discovered the feature to convert individual passwords into a password list, that may be a solution for the time being. A documentation and examples for handling Password List from PowerShell. Missing the above abilities, I tried to invent a PowerShell way of doing that. Unfortunately I could not come up with my own solution, and all the greatest AIs hallucinated so much that the code was unusable :-) I got the existing Password List entry using Get-RDMEntry , but there was no easy way of managing the embedded password entries. [Update] I found out that it's hidden in the $entry.Credentials.PasswordList ... Please document it better with an example... All I could find was the official doc for the UI and the old blog post, nothing for PowerShell. [EDIT] Please also add in the example how to extract password from a password list entry. The following doesn't work: get-rdmEntryPassword $entry.credentials.passwordlist[1] Get-RDMEntryPassword: Cannot bind parameter 'InputObject'. Cannot convert the "RemoteDesktopManager.PowerShellModule.PSOutputObject.PSPasswordListItem" value of type "RemoteDesktopManager.PowerShellModule.PSOutputObject.PSPasswordListItem" to type "RemoteDesktopManager.PowerShellModule.PSOutputObject.PSConnection". Same for removing password list entry: $entry.credentials.passwordlist.RemoveAt(0) MethodInvocationException: Exception calling "RemoveAt" with "1" argument(s): "Collection was of a fixed size." Thanks.

Support for Passkeys

Hi there Passkeys are the „next big thing“ for authentication. Some Password Managers are implementing support for Passkeys. Is something planned to integrate Passkey support? Best regards, John

Expired User & Passwort has no effect on RDP or Host

Hi, When the login credentials have expired, I can no longer view or copy the password. I think this behavior is correct. However, I can still copy the password from the RDP / Host entry (or any other entry that uses these credentials). I would expect the RDP / Host entry to behave the same way as the login credentials entry: Copying the password should display the same error message. Starting a session should also be blocked with the same error dialog. However, on the dashboard I would only like to see one notification about the expired credentials, not an additional notification for every RDP / Host (or other entry) that references those credentials.

Task in Dashboard - Entry

Hi, Is it possible to add Tasks to the entry dashboard, similar to Documentation and the other sections? Currently, I have to open the entry and use the context menu to open a separate Task page for this entry. Or is there a reason, why there is a separate Task page ? [image] And also in the properties?

Native Passkey Support in Embedded Browsers for Microsoft Admin Center

Add native Passkey (WebAuthn) redirection support within the embedded browser session window (specifically for Edge/Chrome engines). This will allow MSPs and enterprise administrators to leverage the Private Mode (Tenant Isolation) feature while simultaneously adhering to Microsoft’s mandatory phishing-resistant MFA requirements (such as Entra Admin Center passkey logins). Currently, Remote Desktop Manager (RDM) handles multi-tenant isolation beautifully via Private Mode in embedded browser entries. However, as Microsoft aggressively pushes phishing-resistant authentication—making passkeys mandatory for Entra admin center access—administrators hit a wall. When trying to authenticate using a passkey inside an embedded browser tab, the WebAuthn API call fails or is unable to use the added passkey from the DVLS safe. To work around this, we are forced to open sessions in an External Browser . While this fixes authentication, it completely breaks the tenant isolation benefits of Private Mode and clutters the local machine with multiple browser profiles. As an MSP, we need to open lots of Microsoft Admin Centres at the same time.. It is therefore necessary to have a central overview, with each entry opening in the embedded browser. We need the embedded browser component in RDM to natively support integrated passkeys in the DVLS safe. Seamless MFA: When a website inside an embedded tab requests a passkey, RDM should trigger the integrated passkey. Best of Both Worlds: Keep the excellent session isolation provided by Private Mode and allow administrators to log in using modern passkeys securely. Why This Matters Mandatory Microsoft Requirements: Microsoft is steadily rolling out mandatory phishing-resistant MFA for all admin portals. This isn't a "nice-to-have" anymore; it is becoming a hard blocker for daily administration. Crucial for MSPs: Managing dozens of Entra tenants requires strict isolation to prevent accidental cross-tenant data leaks or session bleeding. Productivity: Switching back and forth between embedded and external browsers breaks the unified "single pane of glass" workflow that makes RDM so powerful.

The logs contain a mixture of languages

Hi, in our company, some colleagues use RDM in German, while others use it in English. Depending on the selected language setting, the logs are permanently stored in that language. It would be great if the logs were displayed according to the currently selected language setting. [image] [image]

Task in Dashboard - Overview

Hi, is it possible to add Tasks to the Dashboard, similar to the "Entries"? When I click on a Task, the Task List should open. I think the same option as for the Entries would work well. By default, it could be set to "Never". [image]
