Here at DeskDirector we want to make sure that our clients can use all the latest features and changes we have to offer. Due to this, we need to say goodbye to the old and welcome in the new.
This means that we will stop support for some of our products. If you are a recent client, most of these points may not apply to you, if they don't, feel free to ignore this message.
Here is the breakdown of what you need to do and when you need to do this by:
December 31st 2017
If your clients are running our old WPF client, we will stop supporting this version of the client console in December, this is the version that you download from the portal.deskdirector.com site. We ask all users on this version to update to the latest client console, DDPortal, which is available from the DDPortal Installer page in your admin console.
How do I know if I am running the WPF client?
If your client version looks something like 15.16.1 or 15.XX.X, then you are likely runnign the old version. DDPortal is numbered 1.50.2 or 1.XX.X.
