Z4
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hi, I have a WIN10 laptop (Receiver s/w 2020.1 installed) and a WIN7 Z4 Workstation (Sender s/w 2020.1 installed). When I connect, I get the login screen from the sender, select CTRL-ALT-END and key in credentials. I get the Welcome message but I never get my desktop displayed - only the "frozen" welcome message. Both machines were originally using RGS 7.5 successfully.

I have tried using a different WIN7 receiver with RGS7.5 installed to connect to the above Z4 (still at 2020.1)and that works fine.

Any thoughts?

Would you be willing to test with 20.1.2?  What version of Windows 10 are you running on your receiver?  What version of Windows 7 (Pro, Enterprise)?  Do you have a Windows 10 sender to test against?  Remote Boost will not be able to be installed on Windows 7 after our next release this month.

Yes - but that's not what I want to get working at the moment.

Understood 🙂

Remote Boost 20.1.2 is now on the web.  I posted a pinned post this morning.  For log in, are you using our standard authentication or SSO, or Easy Login?  I have a Windows 7 system, need to check if it is Enterprise or not.  I would like to setup my sender like yours, so wondering if your system is headless or if it has displays attached, it may not matter, but I want to check.  Also, what graphic card and driver do you have installed on your sender?  If you could test 20.1.2 on your Windows 7 sender and receiver that would be great to see if the issue is resolved or if it still remains.  I will need to reach out to you in private message if it is still there so I can collect more info that I don't want on the forum.
