Filter field in Navigation pane auto-clears

Hello,
Thank you for your post.
I am currently trying to reproduce this issue and have already deactivated "Apply filter on enter," but I am not experiencing the same problem so far.
Could you please share which data source you are using?
Are you running RDM locally or on a terminal server?

Thanks for your help,
Stephan

Data source type is 'Devolutions Hub Business'

RDM is being run locally on my laptop.

Hello,

To help us determine whether the problem is related to Remote Desktop Manager itself or something specific to your environment (such as configuration or hub-related behavior), please try using the portable version of RDM 2025.3.21 and see if the same issue occurs.

You can find instructions on how to download and run the portable edition here:
https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/kb/how-to-articles/portable-rdm-installation/

If the problem does not occur in the portable version, that will confirm that RDM is working correctly and that the issue is likely tied to a configuration or an environment-specific factor.

Please let us know your results, it will help us move forward with the investigation.

Best regards,

Alexis

Thanks for the reply Alexis.

Using the portable version is much better - the issue I reported doesn't occur, and the filter speed seems much faster overall too.

The issue has occurred again for me - now in the portable version.

I think I understand the issue better now, with reproduce workflow as follows:

1. Set Filter Options >> Focus Main Vault when filtering to TRUE
2. When in any vault other than Main Vault, start typing filter string
3. Typing triggers RDM to now switch to Main Vault (because of the setting in step1)
4. The switch to main takes a couple of seconds (for us anyway), and after Main Vault is activated, the filter string is cleared
5. Typically this is after 4-5 characters have already been typed by the operator

Hi Mitchell,

Could you check under File > Settings > Filter whether the clear filter on vault change option is enabled? If it is, please try disabling it and see if the issue still occurs afterward.


Please let us know your results, it will help us move forward with the investigation.

Best regards,

Alexis
