Rapid Switching of Tabs on Own
See video here: https://knoweth0127.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Recording+2026-07-16+214241.mp4 (not sure how else to show this).
Note that for the first 9s the right tab is the only one selected. Simply hovering the mouse over the left one causes the screen flicker. Obviously not desired!
This is not consistent. It does seem most likely to happen when more than 1 tab in a separate window and then computer locked for a while.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us on that matter.
Could you please provide us with the RDM version and the workspace you are currently using?

Thank you for your collaboration.

It has happened for a while (several months?), and I do keep my RDM up to date. Currently on 2026.2.13.0 64-bit (PreJIT). I use a local XML
@Alexis Geller Peiro See this as well. The SSH CLI is in the red part at the top and below it you can see my navigation side bar with two different connections being rapidly switched, despite no actions from me. https://knoweth0127.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Screen+Recording+2026-07-22+183737.mp4
Hi @atclaus,
Thank you for the additional recording and details, they've been very helpful in narrowing this down.
We've been trying to reproduce this behavior on our end based on the scenario you described (multiple tabs in a separate window, followed by locking the computer for a while), but haven't been able to trigger it consistently so far.
To help us isolate this further, could you try two things:
- Test with a portable installation of RDM to see if the issue still occurs outside your regular installation. You can find the instructions here: https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/kb/how-to-articles/portable-rdm-installation/
- Let us know if the issue persists on version 2026.2.16.0.
This will help us determine whether this is tied to your specific installation/environment or a broader behavior in the application.
Looking forward to your findings.
Best regards,

I have been plagued with this for a bit now and starting to get annoying.
If i open one or 2 ssh sessions there isnt an issue.
If i open sessions 1 at a time its usually not an issue.
But if I CtRL select 4 sessions in left navigation and open all at once. confirm yes on popup I almost always have this issue.
It rapidly cycles through the 4 sessions. so as I am trying to type it appears as a lag because it takes some of the typed letters and get them typed but then pauses as it cycles through the other 3 sessions before returning and inputting the next few characters (from buffer).
