Hi everyone! Another nice feature we've added is the possibility of keeping a tab open during a disconnect. This allows you to restart a remote device or simply keep your work area set up to resume quickly after lunch (you do stop for lunch, right?).

Workflow

Since this is for tabs, the session must be running embedded. You’ll notice a new action in the settings section : “Keep tab on disconnect”

Simply enabling this action will allow you to perform a logoff or restart while keeping the tab present. A panel will replace the content of the session.

This panel offers three actions :

  • Close : You changed your mind and want to close the tab
  • Connect : Connect the session
  • Connect When Available : Pings the host until it becomes available, then connects the session. (YES!!! Playing the guessing game is a thing of the past)

You can even edit the session settings so the option is always enabled, you simple need to visit the More Tab and scroll down to the User Interface section

There you are, another sweet option to make using Remote Desktop Manager 9 even easier. The Devolutions Team
