Why do I see a blank screen while remote PC is in full screen DOS mode?

 

It happens because the current version of Remote Desktop Control cannot work with full screen text modes. However you can press Alt+Enter combination to switch the remote computer to the windowed text mode.

 

Note: You can send keystrokes to the remote PC, only if you are working with the remote computer in Control mode.

Why the remote screen sometimes looks so ugly?

 

Sometimes while viewing the remote screen, it may look ugly. It happens when you are using "Low" or "Medium" color depth for Remote Screen window. To increase color depth you need to do the following: connect to a Host PC and click "Full Control" button. On the toolbar of the appearing Remote Screen window press "Settings "button. In the appearing dialog box select Performance/Quality tab and set the parameter Colors to "High".

How can I speed up the program's performance?

 

In case of a poor performance of Remote Desktop Control while viewing of the remote screen, it is recommended (in order from most effective remedy to less effective):

 

On the Host site:

Use better video adapter, CPU and latest video drivers.
Reduce color depth and screen resolution.
Remove wall-paper from the desktop.
Try to disable "Hardware acceleration" on the Host PC (Display Properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> Troubleshoot -> Set "Hardware acceleration" to "None")

 

On the Admin side:

Start Admin Module, connect to remote PC in "Full Control" mode. Change bandwidth kind in the Settings dialog of Remote Screen Window according to your network capacity.
In Remote Screen Settings dialog: change "Colors" parameter to "auto"  if your bandwidth capacity is high; or "Low" for slow dial-up connections.
In Remote Screen Settings dialog (Advanced Settings tab):  turn on option "Remove Wallpaper".
