Hi all,

I am running RDM free 2020.2.17.0 64bit and I am having an issue where when I want to open up the properties of a connection, or want to add a new item where it needs to open a new properties window, RDM GUI freezes up immediately. No errors given, no Not Responding either on the GUI or in the processes, it just locks up. Right click on the taskbar icon and than choosing close window doesn't work, I have to kill RDM via Taskmanager.

I am running W10 , version 2004 buildnr. 19041.508

Has anyone else experienced this?

I can confirm this, I use the 64-bit Enterprise version and am able to connect via RD Gateway perfectly, no issues. Haven't tested it with 32-bit version however.

I have a sneaky suspicion that under the hood, MS has tinkered with the anti-malware engine in Windows Defender and this is making it harder for 32-bit apps to use certain system functions, which in itself is not a bad thing. Until the Anniversary Update, I was able to use Greenshot (to capture screenshots) without problems. After the Anniversary Update, no go, it even completely locked up my system to such an extend that I had to hard boot it.

Best regards,

Erik

Also, the same situation as before, RDM starts and grabs 25% cpu and nothing happens.

Hi Maurice,

Just installed the Free edition again and started it using the /profiler switch. Same happens as before, it loads, eats up to 25% cpu and nothing happens, I am not getting the profiler window either.

Where does it create it's logfile? Maybe it did create that so I can send that to you......

Best Regards,

Erik

Hello Maurice,

I will do that as soon as I have reinstalled the Free version, I am now running the trial version of Enterprise ;-).

Erik

Hello Jean-Francois,

My issue is not so much not being able to open sessions, it is RDM Free not starting at all, or rather, starting, but hogging CPU at 25+ % and nothing else happening.

I am running W10 1607 14393.10

I am still finding it strange that the 32bits edition has problems after running the Anniversary Update. Up till now I've had zero issues with it on my W10 box.

Could this be because of the new anti-malware gadgetry M$ has put into the update?

Regards,

Erik

Hello Jean-Francois,

I can confirm it works, all my connections are back.

Erik

Hello David,

I just ran a clean install of the Enterprise version and ran the x64 exe. No problems though startup seems a bit sluggish. I've created an RDP connection and was able to use it without problems so far.

Can I just copy over the data directory from the old 32-bit install so I have my connections back? That way I can also test some ssh / https etc connections.

Regards,

Erik

Was starting to suspect that already.

Since I have migrated from Terminals to RDM Free quite some time ago already, you are now forcing me to buy it or switch to another product and rebuild my entire server connection database, to say the least, that's a bit of a bummer.

What I also find 'remarkable' is that it ran fine on a 64bit Windows installation, until this Anniversary Update and please,don't blame Microsoft, that would be a very unprofessional and cheap way out of this discussion.

Maybe I have overlooked something on your website, but it is NOT clearly stated there that the Free edition only comes in 32bit.

Should I decide to buy the product, will all my data at least seamlessly migrate over? In other words, if I copy/pasty my connections cfg file, will all my connections still be usable?

Regards,

Erik

Hello David,

I guess I am the exception that confirms the rule or something, but I cannot find an x64 executable. I've downloaded both the ZIP and the MSI, unpacked both and I cannot find the 64 bit executable.

When I run the MSI, it installs into Program Files(x86) and doesn't give anything like an option to do otherwise.

Just to make sure, I am talking about the RDM Free version.

Regards,

Erik

Hello David,

You may slap me (gently please) but I simply downloaded the MSI from your website, I am not aware of a 64bit download link. So yes, I am using the 32bit version, which could of course explain my issues.

Best regards,

Erik

Hello David,

Just tested that, same result unfortunately.

Only difference I see is a slightly reduced CPU usage, it is now below 25% instead of around 30%.

Beste regards,

Erik

Hello All,

I've applied W10 Anniversary Update to my laptop earlier today and since than, I can no longer use RDM.

Upon starting, I get a brief hourglass and than nothing. Upon checking task manger, I see RDM using up to 30% CPU, but nothing happens.

Removing and re-installing doesn't resolve the issue.

Until updating, RDM ran like a breeze on my W10 box, no issues whatsoever.

Is there anyone else that has experienced this on W10 or maybe also after updating to the Anniversary Update?

I know I am taking chances by updating already, but since RDM ran fine even after updating my laptop from W7, I didn't quite expect this to happen.

Any info/pointers would be highly appreciated!

Erik
