It is only for more "demanding" servers where saving logon resources is crutial that we do propose the use of WinXshell. One fresh setup, the default setting is to use WinXShell. On Update Release, if nothing has been set before, the default setting is not to use it.

  • Logoff speed has been very greatly improved (on a specific customer server logoff duration went from 40 seconds down to 3)
  • Taskbar buttons and Notification area (Systray): In this new release this AdminTool feature has been completely changed in order to: 1) It provide a better and less confusing GUI for the administrators - 2) To warrant the expected behavior

Overlap Taskbar: Even when setting "Overlap taskbar" in the Customize Taskbar, the application was not doing it. Systray icon display: When one application was display the minimized button was overlaping the systray icon(s). Explorer published as "one application": Explorer.exe process is not terminated when the user close it. As result, customers publishing explorer.exe as one application had "zombi session" that could last forever and was never terminated. Right click issue: When starting "one application" the right click was displaying 2 lines: Logoff and Theme switcher.

  • When using RemoteApp on client, in the user systray, possibly, multiple icons were displayed. Also, the systray icon was displayed even when not application has been assigned to the user.

    • Brute force attacks on the Web Portal are blocked when wrong typing of user credentials. After 5 attempts (default value), the Web Portal prohibit the logon during 5 minutes (default value).
    • The default Network Level Authentication (NLA) is now set for a a better security of remote accesses.
    • NEXUS Web Portal now uses the POST action to send parameters to the server, thus encrypting everything when using HTTPS. All connection clients have been updated to use this new action by default.
    • NEXUS Web Portal now limits the number of failed logon attemps. After 3 logon attemps with a bad password in less than 15 minutes, the user is locked and cannot connect for the next 30 minutes. These number are configurable in NEXUS\Clients\www\cgi-bin\hb.exe.config.
    • OpenSSL and related dlls have been updated to their latest version
    • Existing sessions web listing can now be disabled in AppControl.ini To do so, add the following line in the [Security] section of AppControl.ini: disable-existing-sessions-web-listing=yes Please note that this will prevent the Load-Balancing "Sticky Sessions" feature to work.
    • In settings.js (HTML5), you can now set your own landing page depending on the error code. In www\software\html5\settings.js. Add as last line: W.errorForwardLogon = { "err40": "https://www.google.com" }; or W.errorForwardLogon = { "err40": "https://www.google.com", "err30" : "../index.html" };
      You can find the list of error codes in www\software\html5\language.js With this new feature, each error message will be forwarded to your preferred link. One more point. If you want to avoid the display of a message in case of a problem, you just have to enter an empty string for this error code in language.js For example: W.langstring.err40 = "";

  • Connection Client: added code to try harder to avoid this warning: "The publisher of this remote connection can't be identified. Do you want to connect anyway?"
  • Free Certificate Manager: if you use this feature to get a HTTPS certificate on Web Portal, then this certificate will now also be configured for the RDP protocol connection itself. This avoid this warning: "The identity of the remote computer cannot be verified. Do you want to connect anyway?"
  • Client Generator: The client generator is compiling a program (.exe) and it is not possible to numerically sign it. Due to this technical fact, some anti-virus and W10 security are setting false/positive reactions. This is a serious issue and we had to redesign the Client Generator to protect the NEXUS users from this false/positive annoyances.
  • OpenOnClient: If no file was provided as parameter to OpenOnClient we had an error. It is fixed now. If OpenOnClient is started without a specified file, the program is asking the user to select a file.
  • Explorer.exe as one published application was not possible. It is possible now.

  • HTML5: Enhancements on the time zone management.
  • We added the option to select of not the "theming" option in the HTML5 client tile of the AdminTool.
  • Client Generator: Enhancements and fixes when specifying a startup application with commandlines. Now the administrator can specify the full application path, the startup directory and the application command line. The local printers mapping is not more set as default.

  • From W10 Creator Update, it was not not possible to open multiple session with one user logon/password.
  • The Client Generator Seamless client was always using the "green" color, even when the Blue or the Pink has been selected.
  • The Update Release was inforcing "no theming" setting for HTML5. Now we do not change the existing setting.

  • New NEXUS Remote Desktop app "ready". The server side is now ready to supportthe upcoming NEXUS Remote Desktop app for Android, IOS and Windows.
  • File Drag & Drop in HTML5: We added one new feature. If you create a file named targetfolder.txt in the current user AppData directory In which you will write the destination folder for this user. Then, instead of using the global value of destination folder, the drag & drop file(s) will be redirected to this user folder. We modified Folder.exe to use this new feature. When the administrator specify by a command line that the folder to display is not the user Desktop, Then, this folder path is used as destination path for the drag & drop files.
  • Added "No mouse pointer" option in the AdminTool HTML5 client tab.
  • HTML5 enhancements:
    1. Improved mouse handling on PC browsers like FireFox, Chrome and IE Edge. This improvement is the following: when you hold any mouse button and go out of browser area dimensions, by releasing the mouse button now this action is catched too, more over on modern browsers it will even listen to mouse movements while mouse button is pressed and cursor moved out of browser area. That fixes such bug that when marking text with mouse and moved out of browser area, released the mouse button, this release was not catched before in older version and the rdp session still believed that mouse was pressed, and after trying to copy with ctrl+c to clipboard - because mouse inside session was assumed to be pressed - this action was rejected by rdp session and so finally failed. So this update now greatly improves such handling.
    2. Added new parameter W.target_filecopy_behavior = 1; Feature requested, as example by ** = 1 the file copied to target will overwrite old file without prompt instead enumerating copy numbers. However that option does not affect the file names inside //tsclient/WebFile/ but only final target copied files as example when moved to desktop from WebFile. This option requires new webime.au3 which is inside archive!
    3. Added support for port forwarding of OpenVPN messages, so this would allow usage of OpenVPN on same port. To by this version such scenario would be now possible on same port.
  • MyRemoteDesktop: Several light bugs were fixed.
    • If the user PC was too fast at reboot, an error was displayed.
    • Mutliple instances of MyRemoteApp.exe was able to run.
    • Multiple instances of svcr.exe was able to run.
    • Warning: You need to generate a new connection client to benefit from these fixes.
  • UrlOnClient: When an administrator wishes to publish UrlOnClient to push a link on the user PC, AND, if this application is declared as the single application started by the user (or is the Web Application Portal is inforced) then, the UrlOnClient was not working as exected.
  • When the administrator changed the Web Portal theme, the Update Release was reverting it to the default one.
  • The security feature "Allow CUT/PASTE" and the custom target folder for the file transfer on a server were not working as expected.
  • The Application Panel application was not display at the 4th position in the application list. It is fixed now; doing so it less confusing for the administrator. We added also the feature to automatically unselect the other reserved applications when the Application Panel is selected.
  • HTML5: the new version is providing a better handling of reconnections
  • Folder.exe: The design of Folder.exe has been enhanced.
  • File Drag & Drop in HTML5: The target folder was not properly handled.
  • Reconnecting a session: The code to handle the reconnection has been rewritten to avoid possible issue related to the change of the session ID.
  • Remove folders/registry entries at logoff: The code to remove the session related folders have been rewrite to clean the disk and the registry at logoff. Please keep in mind that these action does not apply when the logoff is started by the Windows Start button or a GPO timeout, or a terminated disconnected session.
  • The latest W2012 R2 KB was not compatible with NEXUS. It is fxed now.
  • In html5.html?xyz=** passed url parameters in non latin chars like chinese were incorrectly recognized by Chrome and FireFox, now fixed. Additionally fixed issue when passed as example &port=3390 etc, such passed port was not accepted internally
  • iOS Safari, when changing orientation before first finger touch the orientation was not changed
  • On mobile devices when used W.viewportminwidth/W.viewportminheight,the file/print frames were incorrectly positioned. More over fixed W.scrollOverBounds = { "moveScroll" for handling such overflowing cases.
  • On IE Edge there was a strange bug, when mouse cursors changed to fast then IE just has hidden cursor until next mouse movement. This update improves it.
  • A fix inside webime.au3 that caused fallback reading on new Windows systems like Windows10. In fact, that it worked earlier on older Win10 systems or Windows2008, that was just accident that Microsoft accepted "0" as passed parameter which was wrongly, now that is fixed and working perfectly by me on new Win10 and same fine on Win2008, pretty backward compatible.
v11.10 - 2017/12/18
  • The new Application Panel enables to display published applications like we do with the Web Application Portal but within one single session. This program is great and can be customized by the administrator to deliver a nice user experience.
  • The new Universal Printer Management tile enable to get in one single GUI all required tools to install, uninstall, display and handle the Universal Printer options. The main goal of this new tool is to give to each administrator a better control what must be done when any issue with the Universal Printer must be fixed.
  • HTML5 kernel enhancements: The behavior has been dramatically improved to deliver an excellent behavior on tablets or smartphone. With these enhancements our goal is warrant the best possible solution to connect from a tablet.
  • The Folder.exe program has been enhanced for a better user experience.
  • HTML5 enhancements:
    1. When using under iframe there were some rare cases where dead lock occured while trying to close session on main parent refresh. That was because of unexpected event sequence when using with iframe.
    2. When running under iframe and accident page refresh the program does extra work to restore the session instead to start new session. Doing so, page refreshs under iframe are now safe.
    3. When running under iframe we disallow accidental back button for modern browsers at least until page close or logoff.
  • The HTML5 tile of the AdminTools has been enhanced to add more options
  • On some systems the RDP client was handled as a RemoteApp client creating a logon issue it the full desktop was assigned.
v10.60 - 2017/11/31
  • We added the capability to change the default title "My Remote Applications" by what you want. The application icons displayed in the START menu are now the icon selected by the administrator when he generate the connection client. We made some enhancements to make the result more predictable and this enables the user to be less confused.
  • Universal Printer: The display name "Virtual Printer" has been changed to Universal Printer to be consistant with the generated client or the RemoteApp client.
  • License enforcement: The license control for the number of users has been improved.
  • A new feature has been introduced to enhance the keyboard behavior when entering on an editable field.
  • One new variable is added to setings.js:
    ---------
    W.autoKeyboardPopup = false; //When true, click in editable field calls software keyboard (by native keyboard only on second click).
    When = 2 keyboard will be always called when cursor already editable!
    ----------- Also possible value are:
    W.autoKeyboardPopup = true;
    or
    W.autoKeyboardPopup = 2; = 2 it is very aggressive and calls keyboard even by intention to leave editable field.
    One new feature for mobile devices:
    It is now allowed to do horizontal scrolling (not only for vertical scrolling) However it is possible only on new Windows systems like Win2012.
  • The Application Panel new feature has been added to the AdminTool.

  • HTML5 CPU issue: The HTML5 kernel was changed to avoid the risk to use CPU.
  • Refresh issue: When publishing single application or Floating Panel the display of the minized button was requiring a refresh.
  • The screen asking for the user logon/password (when it was not provided by the generated client) had its focus on the check box "Allows to save credential". It has been changed to the Logon field.
  • License issue: When a license was Unlimited, the system service was truning it to a trial license.
  • License issue: Sometime no user was able to open a session when the trial period was ended. For customer using AZUR, for example, it could create serious issuse.
  • When RemoteAPP mode was selected, on some systems, a blue area was displayed on the user PC. This was because the NEXUS logon process was executered faster than the Windows RemoteAPP initialisation process itself.
  • HTML5: New release of Chrome Android zoom level recognition issue. Google has changed the way the zoom recognition can be done. After Chrome Update, it makes the recognition impossible and it brakes the proper working when using Chrome on an Android device.
  • New release of FireFox on Android Timeout issue. Some customers are disabling the sound and with the new release of Firefox on Androidit stopped the required timeout features. Some file upload popups stopped to work because the popup got focus but parent stopped to be active.
  • Webime program has been changed to keep the focus on the current windows when changing dimension.
  • Webclientdata program has been fixed to avoid cases where the delay to analyse the device was too fast.
  • Universal Printer issue fix: On some systems the Universal Printer for NEXUS generated client was not working as expected. It was difficult to identify why it was working proper on most system but not some ones.We do beleive that it is because of some Windows updates which was changing some NEXUS registry settings. However, we have "ruggudize" the NEXUS code to prevent such issueto happen again. For any customer claiming that the Universal Printer is not working like it was before, we recommand to download this Update Release version, to apply it and to reboot.

Without using his generated client, he will be able to select within these "Local Menu" one of these application and to start it as a RemoteAPP. To enable this nice new feature the Administrator must generate new connection clients. With the AdminTool, The Administrator can also decide whether or not he want to allow this new feature to be available for his users.
  • HTML5: The file transfer by Drag/Drop has been greatly enhanced to prevent files missing and to allow transfer of large number of files. If a files name already exists, instead of replacing it, it is automatically rename. The memory size and the CPU requirements as been optimized to warrant a strong stability and predictability of the result when a user is dropping large files or folders. Some other enhancements were made for a better handling and display of the file transfer feature when using the Drag/Drop capability of the HTML5 client. The design of icons of the HTML5 Mini Menu has been enhanced.

    • Silent Installation: NEXUS new release prevents any Windows Pop-up window during the installation of the Universal Printer.
    • Two new patches are available:
      • http://dl-files.com/Setup-UniversalPrinter-V1.exe. This program is processing the uninstall the new and the old Universal Printer driver prior to install the old Universal Printer driver (V1). Doing it, it warrants the result: the old driver will be correctly installed.
      • http://dl-files.com/Setup-UniversalPrinter-V2.exe: This program is processing the uninstall the new and the old Universal Printer driver prior to install the latest Universal Printer driver (V2). Doing it, it warrants the result: the new driver will be correctly installed.
    • Automatic re-installation: if ever the Universal Printer is removed without any reason, it is automatically re-installed at the next reboot. In addition, NEXUS 10.40 includes a "Re-install Universal Printer" button on the Session Preferences tile of the AdminTool.
    • Quick Printing: the 10.40 Release reduces the printing delay with NEXUS Universal Printer. From now on, each print is opened as soon as it is ready on the user's local disk, without waiting for the previous Acrobat preview to be closed. Besides, the printing process starts only once the PDF is fully created on the client' side, which warrantees a printing without delay.
    • Optimized Printing format: The Universal Printer is now automatically set according to the Server's printer page format (Letter or A4). When the user wishes to change the printing format, he can do so by changing the Advanced Options of the Universal Printer Preferences. He can choose between all the existing supported printing formats or a custom one and his choice will be saved for the next sessions.
    • Double-check reception: there is now an additional location to find the PDF file you are printing. The destination folder can now be found either on the clipboard or in the "clientenvironment.ini" file.

So by calling for example: https://****.my-multidomain.com/, https://my-multidomain, https://xyz.my-multidomain.com/ as certificate will be served only one file \webserver\multicerts\.my-multidomain.com.jks. Also the leading point of cert file tells it is for multiple domains. But still full match certificate is prefered if any existing.
  • We have improved the name of the print files created by the Universal Printer. Before it was a long one like: 1234_file-name_-_print0004.pdf. Now it is much shorter, example: file-name-01.pd
  • The new Universal Printer driver was detected by some Anti-virus (likeAVG) as a risk and was a False/Positive. It has been re-written to eliminate this problem. We added a message for the administrator be advise him to accept this new driver. We also added a message if the new Universal Printer driver is not properly installed
  • When a print is started, the print job waits until the PDF file is fully created prior to copy it to the client side. This is an important fix. Before, on loaded servers, or for large prints, the copy was processed too early.
  • Web Application Portal: When a user was doing double clicks on one application (Notepad for exemple) it was starting two sessions with two applications.
  • The Floating Panel, when assign to a user in the Web Application Portal was not displaying the applications.
  • Start button display and/or Taskbar display when one single application was published. We did fix this issue. Now, when a single application or the Floating Panel is published, the user does not see anymore the Windows Start button.
  • Fix of alternateshell/Windows shell when the Windows shell is started before the logonsession process itself.
v10.30 - 2017/05/07
  • The Universal Printer is no longer installed during the Setup, nor during the Update
