PROXY Pro v10.5 Hotfix #8 is now available!

Hello Friends of Proxy Networks,

We have just released PROXY Pro v10.5 Hotfix #8! 

The new software version is available from the Downloads page on our website and our upgrade guides are located on the Documentation page. It is recommended that all customers upgrade to this release, especially those that did not upgrade to the previous hotfix. 

Changes in this Hotfix include:

• File Transfer regression issue: Starting in v10.5 HF#6, File Transfer would not successfully copy an entire directory to the root folder of a destination drive. Individual file copies, and copies of directories to anywhere other than a drive root were unaffected. Either the Host or the Master must be upgraded to this version (or later) to get the fixed behavior.

• Server Installer: A sensitivity to OS language was fixed in the Server installer. The certificate matching logic failed to properly evaluate and match Subject Alternative Names in SSL certificates on non-English user interfaces.

• Host and Master for Macintosh: The Host for Macintosh and Master for Macintosh have been updated to address a compatibility issue with MacOS 15 (Sequoia). Note that this update was available separately from support, but this is the first release that includes this update.

• Screen Blanking: The Host software now ensures that the Screen Blanking message is always on top of all other windows and popups on the screen. Previously, some system popups like Task View could appear to the console user. Note that with this fix, Screen Blanking is no longer supported for Session Host on Demand (but does work correctly in Pinned Host on Demand).

• Host Screen Capture: fixed specific instances where Host screen capture would not actually capture the screen. This was known to impact screen capture of RDP sessions, but could also rarely occur in other configurations.

• Master Web Login Improvement: The Master (and other client programs) now use the Microsoft WebView2 component, instead of the older Internet Explorer control, to present a web experience for logon. This provides much better compatibility with whatever pages are required to complete the logon, including EntraID Single-Sign-On and conditional access.

• Gateway Server Auditing improvements: The Gateway setting “Auditing > Only log failures” now only affects the writing of success events to the application Event Log. Success events are always written to the CSV text file. Additionally, the logic for “Maximum log file age (days)” was adjusted to ensure that the specified amount of audit data is preserved. Previously, the calculation was based on the audit file creation date, so on a weekly rollover, fewer days were preserved than expected.

• OpenSSL: OpenSSL v3.0.16 is incorporated into this release.
