Ctrl+D will open a Duplicate entry on SSH terminal instead of logging off (2026.3.1.1)

Hello,
when pressing Ctrl+D to exit the terminal, in this version it suddenly started to open a duplicate session dialog instead of logging off the ssh session.

Tested on Linux MInt 22.3 and Fedora 44.

Hello,
Thank you for the report and for testing it on both distributions.
To help us, could you please confirm:

  1. The version you were using before the update, where Ctrl+D closed the session as expected.
  2. Whether the Duplicate dialog also opens when you click inside the terminal first and then press Ctrl+D, or only right after switching tabs or clicking elsewhere in RDM.
  3. Your data source type (Local, Devolutions Server, SQL Server, Hub, etc.).

In the meantime, typing exit or logout in the session will close it normally.
Thank you,

Carl Marien

Hello,

1) it worked in all previous versions, up until 2026.3.0.5 (that had that Alt issue though).
2) Duplicate dialog opens even if I focus the terminal by clicking into it (i checked it already before submitting the bug, and now rechecked).
3) Data source is Local.

Typing exit or logout works, and that's what I use now.

Thank you,
Radek S.

Hello Radek,
Thank you for the details. You confirmed that the Duplicate dialog opens even when the terminal has focus, that it started in 2026.3.1.1, and that 2026.3.0.5 behaved correctly.
I've opened an investigation with our QA team so they can reproduce the issue and send it to development. Another user has reported the same behavior, and I've included both reports.
Until a fix is available, typing exit or logout will keep closing the session normally, as you're already doing.
I'll update you as soon as I hear back from the team.
Best regards,

Carl Marien

Just to update, other commands like F2-F10, Insert, etc in Midnight Commander over SSH doesn't work as well, like the session wasn't in focus. Instead, it opens RDM related dialog windows.

Hello Radek,
Thank you for the extra detail. Our QA team has reproduced the Ctrl+D issue and logged it as a bug for the development team.
The function keys and Insert in Midnight Commander look like the same root cause: since 2026.3.1.1, RDM handles some keyboard shortcuts itself before they reach the terminal. I've added your F2–F10 and Insert findings to the report, so the fix covers those keys and not only Ctrl+D.
Until a fix is released, you have two options:

  • Keep using exit / logout to close sessions, and use the Midnight Commander menus (F9 or the mouse) where function keys fail.
  • Go back to 2026.3.0.5, where these keys worked. Keep in mind that version still has the Alt key issue that 2026.3.1.1 fixed.

I'll let you know as soon as a version with the fix is available.
Best regards,

Carl Marien
