EthoVision XT does not recognize the dongle when working remotely
Last updated: Aug 24, 2026
Microsoft's Remote Desktop does not support dongles (hardware license keys). To work remotely, we recommend using alternative tools for remote access such as TightVNC, TeamViewer, or Dameware to do so, these do support the use of dongles remotely. Any remote access solution other than Microsoft's Remote Desktop should work.Alternatively, software-based licenses (available starting in EthoVision XT 17) can work in Remote Desktop. Contact support if you would like more information.
