After Search, Enter does not work
I upgraded RDM Free on Friday to 2021.2.26.0
Since then the behaviour of the search in the bottom left hand corner seems to have changed.
I type a partial name and up pops a list. Typically the top one, already selected, is the one I want. I press Enter and nothing happens. Now I have to double-click on the selection to activate it.
I'm sure it used to accept Enter as well.
It is rather a pain to use the mouse as I have to let go the mouse to type the name and then have to go back to the mouse.

Hello,
can you verify if maybe this option is enabled in File => Options => Keyboard

No it is not ticked
I have tried to tick it and save - same behaviour.
Then removed tick and save - still same behaviour.
Any news on this?
Hello,
I did some tests on my side to try to replicate the behavior you are describing, but haven't been able to reproduce the issue so far.
I would appreciate if you could do a test when you have the time. I would like to know if the same issue occurs in a brand new portable instance of RDM. This will allow us to determine if the issue is related to a configuration on your main RDM installation or if it goes deeper than that.
Here are the steps to create a portable instance of RDM :
1. Download the RDM zip folder from the link below :
https://remotedesktopmanager.com/home/thankyou/rdmbin
2. Extract this zip in an empty folder of your choice
3. Launch RemoteDesktopManager64.exe from this folder
4. Register your license
5. Establish your data source connection under File > Data Sources
Once that is done, please try out the search option on this instance of RDM and let us know if it works as expected.
Best regards,

I will try and do that in the next day or two. I will also try a PC restart to eliminate the possibility of a PC issue.
Just noticed an other change: The 'Duplicate' option has disappeared.
In the search box I used to type a partial name - a few entries came up - I right clicked on one of then and selected 'Duplicate'.
This is something I do quite often and is a major loss at the moment.
Is duplicate possibly available some other way? I need at the moment to duplicate something.
Found duplicate on the Navigation panel
Hello,
Glad you were able to locate the Duplicate option in the Navigation pane!
We'll be waiting for the results of the portable instance tests when you have the time to do it!
Best regards,

I'm pleased to say that a restart (together with a Windows update) has cured both problems.
I do have one more issue but I will start a new thread.
