v11.40 with BYODAPP App- 2018/06/12
The Client Generator has been redesigned to be numerically signed and to avoid false/positive antiviruses reactions.
To do so, a signed program named "Setup-ConnectionClient.exe" has been developed. Each user will have to run this setup on his PC. It will install locally the required BYODAPP client. Instead of a ".exe" program, the new Client Generator is creating a flat encrypted file with the extension ".connect".
This ".connect" file extension is associated with the local BYODAPP connection client. The user will just have to double click on the ".connect" file to start his session.
Application publishing: The administrator can now move up or down declared applications for a better presentation in the Floating Panel.
Security:
New variables were created in AppControl.ini:
onlyuserwithapp=yes This will logoff users without assigned application -
appcmdline=no This is prohibiting starting application with a URL and command line -
whitelistadmin=yes Avoid Administrators to be blocked by these security rules
One option in AppControl.ini has been added to avoid the automatic installation of the Ghostprint Universal Printer driver if the customer want to remove the Universal Printer.
([Security] printerdriver=no)
To enhance the security, the Client Generator now includes a new release of Sumatra.
To enhance the security, a new release of Ghostscript driver has been included.
To enhance security, a new release of OpenSSL security dll has been included.
A new release of Jquery is now installed.
The CGI communication code is now enabling the use of POST instead of GET. As result, when using HTTPS the URLs command lines are encrypted.
RDS-Knight is now installed after the admin approval or silently at setup or Update (trial version) and the AdminTool Advance Security tab include the tile to start RDS-Knight.
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.
BYODAPP 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.
BYODAPP 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 BYODAPP\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 = "";
Support of the upcoming Windows 10 Spring Creators Update and Windows Server 2019 Insider Preview. Compatibility fix for Windows 10 version 1703 64 bits due to KB4284874
Web Server: added support for upcoming Java11. webserver\settings.bin parametter "ie6_ssl_workaround=true" now extends support for IE8 SSL on XP systems; this is required for IE8 because Oracle removed Ciphers on latest Java8
HTML5: The webclientdate.exe program has been removed and replaced by a bult-in web chanel new feature
HTML5: fix for Chrome with cursor. When user was leaving browser with cursor, then moved cursor back to browser, and has catched the browsers edges/borders then browser began to display that cursor even when continuing to move over canvas-rdp area, which looked ugly.

When using the Web Application Portal AND when selecting an application with a command line AND when using the RemoteApp plugin. The command line was not handled properly.
Web Portal / Mobile App: fixed bug if application path started/ended with double quotes.
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 BYODAPP 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.
In the Web Application Portal, Explorer was starting when running another application. It is fixed now.
Folder.exe display the content of the folder in command line (if any), as it did in 11.30.
Web Server: Fixed time zone names when using Java 11 or 12.
HTML5: several fixes for Japanese language and keyboard. Fixed compatibility issue with IE8 (it is an old browser and we do not recommend using it).

The Chinese character used in the HTML5 Client text message was corrupted after a restart of the web server.
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.
The password entry field in the Web Credential was display in clear text. It is encrypted now.
The Printer Management tile was display in the AdminTool even for System Edition.
French character was not correctly displayed in the AdminTool.
In the Printer Manager tile, the READY status was display %READY. The % has been removed.

v11.20 - 2018/02/04
The HTML5 new features for iFrames has been updated. On Smartphone/tablet we added the option to display a zoom-in/zoom-out buttons on the top menu.
New BYODAPP Remote Desktop app "ready". The server side is now ready to supportthe upcoming BYODAPP 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:
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.
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!
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 BYODAPP. 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:
When using under iframe there were some rare cases where dead lock occurred while trying to close session on main parent refresh. That was because of unexpected event sequence when using with iframe.
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.
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.
In the new release 10.50, assigning application to Groups was omitted.
Floating Panel: The AdminTool option to display minimize/close was not working.
Issues when assigning applications to Groups has been reported.
RemoteAPP On Client: The list of assigned application was empty when the Taskbar or the Floating Panel was not assigned.
Because of the latest KB on W10/W2016 BYODAPP processes was using a lot of CPU creating an heavy load, even with 2 or 3 users.
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 BYODAPP 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 BYODAPP 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 BYODAPP registry settings.
However, we have "ruggudize" the BYODAPP 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.
On Windows Home Edition some builds were not supported.
Universal Printer using the Web Portal was not working as expected.
v10.50 - 2017/10/01
The Client Generator and the AdminTool "Assign Application" tile were changed to provide a new great feature: Each user will see, in his SART menu, and within his TRAY icons, the list of his assigned applications. 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.
Windows 10 Home. We added to support of Windows 10 Home. As you know this was removed beginning of the year 2017; however it is not included as it was in 2016.
Advanced security. For over a year we are investing to provide the best security to our customer. To do so, we developed an new and amazingly easy-to-use and effecient new BYODAPP Add-on named RDS-Knight.

Option to select files and to download from file listing menu.
The code of installuniversalprinter.bin and removeuniversalprinter.bin has been enhance to provide a better result, even in specific cases.
RemoteApp client: Sometimes, the RemoteApp client was not able to catch the clipboard content. As a result, the connection was handled as a mstsc one.
When target rdp server is not localhost and target server is win2012, win10 or above, and originally connecting gateway mismatch in their system language (gateway english > original french etc.) then this version adds support of fallback time zone. now this feature is supported by html5 client too.
Local servers are unaffected since there original and target do not differ in language.
A new variable has been added for cases where user wants to disable secured traffic on http port.
logonsession.bin has been changed to handle the case of some users having a "blue screen" or "black screen" displayed when they did reconnect

Silent Installation: BYODAPP 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, BYODAPP 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 BYODAPP 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.
BYODAPP HTML5 Remote Client Top-menu: The design has been enhanced to enable a better display of the Upload/Download buttons.
More improvements of the logon process
The command lines for applications published with the Web Application Portal are now supported.
Added support of mult-domain certificates for serving as SNI. 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
In case the Universal Printer feature is not installed yet, a message box offering the installation will be displayed when the Administrator launches the AdminTool. This new process enables a faster Setup. The Universal Printer can also be installed by the administrator by using the new START menu entry.
On the other hand, if the Administrator is already using the Universal Printer with an old BYODAPP release 10 or 9 driver, the AdminTool automatically displays the Universal Printer version on the license tab.
For previous versions, the Universal Printer must be uninstalled using the START menu entry, the new one can be installed by using the Universal Printer Installation START menu entry.
The new Universal Printer driver cannot be installed on old 2003/XP systems.
