I noticed that the user documentation for the new version is 600 pages shorter than the one for 14.x. Many of the sections have been removed. Does this mean those functions are no longer officially supported?
Specifically, I wanted to setup automatic password filling for web browsers. Are the instructions in the old guide still valid? There is a reference to a Knowledge Base Configuration walkthrough for Web Browser Auto-Login. Is this available for download somewhere?
Hi there!
Indeed we've recently updated and cleaned up our documentation and it is still a work in progress. We've removed a lot of encyclopedic content that served little informative purpose. For instance, we've removed a lot of pages where we would explain the same features more than once as well as pages providing unnecessary information (such as explaining what Screen Size is and does).
That does not mean these features are no longer accessible. The automatic filling for Web Browsers is still available and in its specific case can still be found in the Online Help.
I could be wrong, but is this the feature you're referring to?

Most removal of content was done to prevent information from repeating itself. For instance, if we had multiple entries that would have the Auto-fill/Auto-submit feature (such as Web Browsers and Deskroll), we would only explain how auto-fill works once rather than on each and every entry separately.
Using the search bar at the top left of the Online Help is very useful is searching specific features like this one.

Thank you for that information.
That is the correct feature, but there were 28 pages in the 14.x user guide that were removed in the new guide. On page 500, it references a configuration walkthrough presentation. Where can I find this document? There is a screen shot of the cover page, but no link.
"Please consult this presentation for the proper sequence of steps to achieve a high success rate for auto-filling of credentials"
Hello
Could I recommend to use our most updated guide by using the online help at https://help.remotedesktopmanager.com.
Please look at the step by step https://help.remotedesktopmanager.com/troubleshooting_webauthentication.htm to check the autofill options.
Furthermore, the blog https://blog.devolutions.net/2016/12/how-to-use-auto-login-through-a-web-browser-httphttps-session-in-remote-desktop-manager could also be useful

Thanks, I'll take a look.
Would you be able to add one more page please to a batch edit in powershell section with a full list of properties and parameters please?
It would be handy to open one single page to find necessary property or its parameter for the property.
Thanks a lot!
Hello,
All the needed information is present in the properties of the session. As explain in https://help.remotedesktopmanager.com/index.html?powershell_batchactionssamples.htm , doing a right-click -> Clipboard -> Copy will provide you the XML data of the session and show you the needed information to create your Powershell script.
Best regards,
