@Umut, is it correct with the web version of remote control that there is no toolbar yet?

It seems so, and some shortcut keys don’t seem to work.
I’m using it on my own intranet, and the screen seems to be slightly delayed.

We released a beta version for Web Remote Control. We aim to get your valuable feedback on how we should improve the new capability. (thank you very much @nct and @allen for your initial feedback)

We are planning to release the full version in Q4, where it will have all the capabilities that the regular Remote Control application has.

Do you know when EDR Version 2.9 will be released? There is a fix in there for an Office 365 issue with dialogue boxes.

Can you elaborate on this " * Fixed a bug in the endpoint manager that allowed access to functions that were not authorized."

Hi @myr

As part of the Xcitium license updates, we have resolved an issue where certain parts of Endpoint Manager were inaccessible, even when devices were properly licensed.

Best regards,
Umut.
