Browser Protocol Extension Bug?
I'm trying to use your browser protocol extension as a browser link on a helpdesk web portal of ours to open RDM with a filter command. I noticed that if I pass in just a single word that the filter works fine, however, it doesn't work when there is a space involved, even when wrapping in quotes (just reverts to previous search). For example:
These work:
rdm://open?Filter=SingleWord
These do not:
rdm://open?Filter="Multiple Words" (encodes to: rdm://open?Filter=%22Multiple%20Words%22)
rdm://open?Filter="SingleWord"
I tried the same filter command using the cmd line utility and it works with multiple words IF I use the double quotes around the string:
These work:
> ../RemoteDesktopManager64 /Filter:SingleWord
> ../RemoteDesktopManager64 /Filter:"Multiple Words"
These do not:
> ../RemoteDesktopManager64 /Filter:Multiple Words
Am I using this wrong, or is this a bug? Would really like to get this working right.

Hello,
Thank you for reporting the issue, this is indeed a bug. The filter argument should work with spaces. I've opened a ticket with our engineering department.

Hello,
Spaces will now be parsed correctly, without the need of quotes, as soon as version 2019.2.22 hits.

Thank you Jonathan! When is that one expected to be released?
Was this implemented yet? If so, what version?
Hello,
It should be out in both our latest release (2020.1.10.0) as well as the previous stable (2019.2.24.0).

I'm asking about what version it was added. Our license expired recently, but this should have been implemented already. We are on version 2019.2.22.0.

Actually, according to the change log, it seems like it was implemented in my exact version: https://remotedesktopmanager.com/release-notes#v2019.2.22.0
Tested and it seems to be working!
Hello,
Thanks for letting us know.
We've also tested on our end to verify it worked properly and we noticed that it doesn't seem to work in certain cases (like using quotes). We're opening a new ticket to fix some of the remaining issues, but I'm glad to know it works in your case.

Yup, noticed it didn't work with quotes either, but I don't "need" it to have quotes so I'm perfectly ok with that. Appreciate the continuous development.
