Hello everyone,

We've released TightVNC for Windows version 2.8.75. It fixes a number of
bugs and prepares for multi-monitor support that will be introduced
later in our modern viewers, Remote Ripple and MightyViewer.

Also, zlib compression library has been updated to its current version.
This should fix potential security issues found in previous versions of
the library. We highly encourage you to upgrade all installations of
TightVNC to this latest version.

Download TightVNC here:

Also, give a chance to our new software:

  Remote Ripple: https://remoteripple.com/ (free, desktop and mobile)

  MightyViewer: https://mightyviewer.com/ (free to try, Windows)

Here is a detailed change log for TightVNC 2.8.75:

 * Server and Viewer for Windows: Updated zlib and libjpeg libraries to
   their latest versions. Note that older versions of zlib may have
   security flaws, so this may be an important reason to upgrade TightVNC.

 * Server for Windows: Added server-side support for special protocol
   extension allowing to display individual monitors in multi-monitor
   systems. Multi-monitor handling will be implemented in next versions of
   MightyViewer and Remote Ripple.

 * Server for Windows: Fixed a bug causing the server to crash
   repeatedly (sf bug #1597).

 * Server for Windows: Blocking file transfers while the system is locked.

 * Server for Windows: Fixed a bug with network drives browsing in
   service mode.

 * Server for Windows: Fixed a bug with using default configuration set
   instead of the proper one when capturing screen contents in the service
   mode.

 * Server for Windows: Fixed an issue with resetting the mouse cursor
   position when viewers connected in the view-only mode.

 * Server for Windows: Fixed a bug with User Query dialog window in RDP
   sessions.

 * Server for Windows: Fixed a bug with tilde characters in Polish
   keyboard layout.

 * Viewer for Windows: Added a workaround to work correctly with HMI
   panels made by Siemens PLC.

 * Viewer for Windows: Fixed problems with clipboard operations when
   connected to several remote desktops simultaneously.

 * Server for Windows Installer: The installer now will not insist on
   setting an Administrative Password.
