HTML remote control WS

File transfer lets you download files from the target or upload files to the target. Once you've connected, you can click the file transfer button to open the file transfer dialog box. You will see a list of available drive letters on the target. Double-clicking a drive letter will start browsing the remote file system on that drive.

Once you've browsed to a location, you can Download a file or folder from there or Upload a file to there. If you select a folder to download, the RCViewer application will zip that folder and its contents first before starting a download of the resulting zip file.

You can remotely execute programs on the target. If you execute a command that runs in a command prompt or PowerShell, the RCViewer application will capture the output from that command so you can view it later. If you execute a command that launches a Windows application, that application will launch and no output will be captured.

When you execute a file, the RCViewer application shows the execution status. If the execution captured a result, click Show to see it. The execution status history is cleared when the session closes.

You can run applications on the target as one of these users: Local System, Local System with GUI, or as the Logged in User.

When specifying the Run execution program you want, you can either type it in directly or you can click the Remote File System tab and browse for it. If you don't include a program path, the program must be in the target's Windows path for the execution to be successful.

If the target desktop won't fit in the viewer window, the viewer reduces the desktop magnification so that it will. If your viewer window is a lot smaller than the target's resolution, this makes the target's text and user interface smaller.

If you want to see the target desktop at it's native resolution without scaling, you can toggle resolution scaling on or off with the Resolution button . You may have to use the scroll bars to view portions of the desktop that don't fit in the viewer window.
