Allow centralized/distributable configuration of SSH Algorithm Support settings

Posting on behalf of a customer:

"In a corporate/organizational environment I need to distribute our company settings to all users, preferably by loginscript during logon. Today my scripts both verify that the settings are correct in the .cfg file (if not correct them) and by use of the Powershell devolutions cmdlet where possible.

Unfortunately, by the help from Devolutions support, I realize that The SSH Algorithm Support settings are no longer stored in RemoteDesktopManager.cfg. for the latest versions, they've moved to a separate file in the same folder, RemoteDesktopManager.stv, which is encrypted and tied to the specific Windows user and machine.

My request is to make the settings distributable again and not only require single user edit in the gui on each user machine. Many of our users would not follow through with having to do this manually each time its needed (on new machine, new profile etc.) and instead call me and ask.

I guess the best would be though the powershell devolutions cmdlet. However gpo and scripting edits or cfg file(s) could also work."

Hello,

In version 2026.3.2 of the Devolutions.PowerShell module, the functionality has been added. Two new cmdlets (Get-RDMSshAlgorithmSupport and Set-RDMSshAlgorithmSupport) let you read and set the SSH Algorithm Support settings (cipher, host key, key exchange and MAC) from a script.

Best regards,
