Enhancements for Notifications
Right Click Tools users can send customized toast notifications to their endpoints via the Send Notification tool. These custom notifications are often used to keep end-users informed on everything from outages to upcoming required updates. This release brings improvements to those notifications. The title field for notifications is now fully customizable. Previously this was a default value and unchangeable. This customization should make your notification more impactful and easier for the end-user to understand.
Maintenance Window Insights in Show Collections – Advanced
Coming from a feature request, we have added some additional data to the Show Collections – Advanced tool. This tool will now display whether a maintenance window is enabled for the collection.
Kiosk Manager Improvements
Kiosk Manager, our kiosk/ single-use-device management tool included with Right Click Tools Enterprise, received some new capabilities and usability enhancements. To facilitate a more user-friendly flow of managing kiosk profiles, we have modified the behavior of the Manage Profiles page when you finish modifying a profile. Now when you finish a profile, the Manage Profiles page will remain open so that you can more quickly and easily move on to editing more profile if needed. The profiles listed in the page will now also be listed alphabetically to make things easier to find.
You will find a few new options to take advantage of within profile setup as well. You can now disable the delete key, which also applies to the delete key that can be found in the number pad. Additionally, a 64-bit version of Google Chrome has been added for use when adding a Shell Replacement.
Recast Management Server
Recast Agent Page Customization

With this release, you can now customize how many Recast Agents are displayed per page. Choose from 10, 25, 50, or 100 Agents per pageview. You can now configure this page to your liking.
