Current Release

Version 7.6.0 was released in April 2024 and is the latest production release.

Important

Before installing this version, your Tricerat Licensing Server must be upgraded to v5.5.2.4 or later!  The upgrade to v5.5.2.4 Tricerat Licensing Server needs to be completed before upgrading any server session agent to avoid license checkout issues!  See this page for upgrade instructions: Upgrading Your License Server  The latest version is v5.5.2.4. This version is required to support the new ScrewDrivers Reports product.

Version 7 products are not compatible with version 6 license activation codes. You will need new activation codes for version 7 products. Please contact your Salesperson for more information.

Important

Before installing any version 7 component, you must install the .Net 4.8 Runtime. Failure to do so will prevent license activation of a nodelocked license and all UI’s will fail to run due to its dependency on this version of .Net.

New Features and Enhancements

  • ScrewDrivers Reports now includes SNMP-based Printer Status Reporting for IP printers. Available with ScrewDrivers Enterprise or as a standalone license.

Improvements and Fixes

  • ScrewDrivers Administration has improved visibility of existing printer profiles in the assignments pane.

  • ScrewDrivers session agents have a registry option to bypass slow WTS response for select VMWare PCoIP environments.

  • ScrewDrivers Notify Tray now displays the correct installed version.

  • ScrewDrivers Print Server includes a fix for odd Xerox driver bug when querying DC_PAPERS.

  • Other minor updates, fixes and logging improvements.

Known Issues

  • We no longer support the deployment of a v6 style Simplify Console in the Pro/Enterprise installer.

  • If the ScrewDrivers Administration active tab is Reporting, the report viewer will hide portions of the File->Options or Help->About windows due to a technical limitation. A workaround does exist, just change to another tab view before displaying the File->Options or Help->About window. We do not expect this to be fixed in a future version.
