Hello!
I've noticed in the last few updates that the installer will remove the 32-bit icon from the task bar and add the 64-bit icon. I also noticed that the 64-bit icon (in the Start menu as well) used to be titled Remote Desktop Manager 64-bit and the 32-bit version was simply Remote Desktop Manager. Recently now the 32-bit version is labeled Remote Desktop Manager 32-bit and the 64-bit version is just Remote Desktop Manager.
Is the 64-bit version now the recommended version to use? My memory usage with RDM is very reasonable, not including spawned processes (here looking at you, RDP). I also rarely use external tools or plugins, just the included ones like VPN and SSMS/SQL. I'm not sure those even require the 32-bit executable. Does this KB article still apply: https://help.remotedesktopmanager.com/index.html?tipsandtricks_32bit_vs_64bit.htm
PS: Love RDM. It's an absolute time saver. Hours and hours and hours saved!
Hi Nathan,
Devolutions set the 64bit version as standard since version 13.5.1.0 - you can find the respective entry here.
For me everything works flawlsess as in the 32bit version.
I personally believe that the mentioned article is a little bit outdated - because in this version 8 is mentioned and on the other side the many performance updates they are implemented in the past - so I think the 64bit version is the better choice now ;)

Thanks! I hadn't seen that. I'll start using the 64-bit version then.
