Have any of you experienced problems w/ v.9.080 or higher, where you cannot copy and paste from another Windows source (Excel, Outlook, Wordpad, etc.) into RDM (i.e. password boxes, Server names, etc.)?
The other thing which seems to be related is I used to be able to right-click and copy folders, documents, files, etc. from one server to another or from desktop into a server and that too seems to be gone.
Seemed to happen around the same time w/ my upgrade to v.9.080 and now I'm on 9.0110 ... no change ...
Much thanks! RDM is a superior program with very little idiosyncracies. solving this would be go a long way towards me ditching RDO, which I have to run now whenever I need to copy from desktop to server or from server to server. For some reason RDOrganizer doesn't have this limitation.

Hi,
Does it happen all the time? Have you tried just to reboot after the upgrade? I remember an issue with the RDP clipboard process and it's very similar to what you described.

David --
Yes, it's all the time. This is my work machine so it's rebooted every day, and since I work in interface support i'm needing to hop on and off of many servers a day. whether scripts or files or whatever i very often need to copy from server to server or from desktop to server, so that's the functionality that I miss the most. Not being able to copy from Excel cells (i.e. credentials and IP addresses, etc.) into session setups and dialog boxes is annoying but nowhere NEAR as productivity-destroying as not being able to copy from server-to-server or desktop-to-server.
I have tried in vain to find some sort of permissions setting that may be at fault, but when I use RDO (the competition) it works and RDM does not any more. I would load an older copy I suppose, that's the next thing to do. I just don't like the thought of having to go through and enter in all those server details LOL.
Thanks in advance ...
Dave
Could you take a look at this topic:
http://help.remotedesktopmanager.com/troubleshooting_rdp.htm
Take a look at the last two tips
David Hervieux
I must be on the pipe, I don't see anything here that's relevant ... can you be more specific?
Check:
Copy/paste between a remote session and my local computer stopped working
and
Copy/paste operation WITHIN THE REMOTE HOST are extremely slow
David Hervieux
Where are you looking? I don't see those under TIPS & TRICKS ...
If you click on the link, it will open the Microsoft RDP Troubleshooting: Try a Ctrl+F for paste
David Hervieux
I'm clicking on the link. It takes me to "The Microsoft RDP client is not working properly". From there TIPS & TRICKS is under the SUPPORT / RESOURCES Branch. You said the last 2 ... I don't see them anything relevant there. I did a search for CTRL+C and got nothing relevant ...
Can you just give me a link to the EXACT PAGE that you're referring to instead of making me hunt through the whole thing?
Thanks.
And just to be clear, THIS: http://help.remotedesktopmanager.com/troubleshooting_rdp.htm is the link you gave me, and if you're referring to:
Copy/paste between a remote session and my local computer stopped working
This issue arises when a program called RDPClip becomes unstable. You can kill its process and launch a new instance.
1.Load up task manager (right click taskbar and select Task Manager)[/table]
2.Go to the Processes Tab[/table]
3.Select rdpclip.exe[/table]
4.Click End Process[/table]
5.Go to the Application Tab[/table]
6.Click New Process[/table]
7.Type rdpclip[/table]
8.Click Ok[/table]
I already said that this wasn't a relevant answer in this case ...
I edited this so we could be clear .... and added the above ...
Thanks

Yes it's this link but what about the disabling the Serial port?
Copy/paste operation WITHIN THE REMOTE HOST are extremely slow
As strange as it may seem, we've isolated the issue to "Serial Ports" being
David Hervieux
The servers are all remote, and doing anything to them physically is out of the question. I also do not think that the serial port is the answer.
To that effect, neither is RDPCLIP running nor does running it solve the issue that I can see.
I will just have to go back to using RDO, as much as it an inferior product, it never has these problems.
If you can think of any setting that might work, please let me know, I'll keep using RDM for non-intensive work, troubleshooting and etc. where there are no builds involved or any files needing xferring.
Thank you again for the help.
Hi,
The last thing you could try is to use it in External mode instead of Embedded.
