Can someone tell me how to install MikroTik Winbox application and configure it so I can use it within RDM?
After creating a MikroTik Winbox entry, after clicking Open session I'm getting the pop-up to configure de Installation Path of the application.
I am not able to install Winbox as a application, only executing the .exe file I download on
https://mikrotik.com/download/winbox
Can someone give me a short manual/tldr how to fix this?

Hello,
You need to click on the three dots to the left of the first input bar and select the .exe file you're referring to.

Thanks for your reply. I'd already gotten that far. When I define my installation path and then try to start a session with the Winbox entry, I get the following error message:

Hello,
Thank you for the additional details and the error message.
At this time, I am not able to reproduce the issue on my end using the MikroTik Winbox entry in Remote Desktop Manager. The application launches and connects as expected in my environment.
To help us investigate further, could you please provide the following information:
This information will help us determine whether the behaviour is related to the Winbox executable itself or to an environment-specific factor.
Thank you for your cooperation, and we look forward to your reply.

Thank you for the reaction.
I was able to resolve our issue, it had something to do with our Applocker policy. Case closed.
Hello,
Perfect, thank you for the follow-up.
