Solve backward combability issues with Load RDM CmdLet
2 votes
When using the feature Load RDM CmdLet in PowerShell (local) entries, the latest Devolutions.PowerShell module is fetched from PSGallery. However, if an older version of DVLS is installed, it's quite possible to get compatibility issues. If module backward compatibility can’t be assured, wouldn’t it be better to have the Load RDM CmdLet feature to be configured to fetch an older module with -RequiredVersion 2024.x.x

Hello,
The Load-RDM Cmdlet option loads the existing installed module. This means that if a previous version is already installed, that version will be loaded—even if it's not the latest. This behavior allows you to control which version is used.
However, if no module is installed, you're correct: the latest version will be downloaded and installed, which could introduce compatibility issues. I’ll open a ticket to review and improve this behavior. That said, the installed module version will be aligned with the RDM version to ensure compatibility. Unless there's a specific need to use a different version, there won’t be an option to manually select the module version.
Best regards,

Hello,
Thank you for your patience!
The fix is available starting from Remote Desktop Manager Windows version 2025.3.22. The module will be based on the Remote Desktop Manager version.
Please let us know if everything works as expected or if you encounter any further issues.
Thank you again for your suggestion.
Best regards,
Maxime
