New in AnyDesk 3.0.0 Beta (Dec 3, 2016)

  • The most important new feature in AnyDesk 3.0 is our integrated address book. The address book is synchronized between all seats of your "AnyDesk Professional"-license and lets you comfortably manage computers and contacts using our innovative hierarchical tagging system. Tags can be used to create groups so that professional users can more easily organise their customers or frequently used remote maintenance partners. For example, queries like "all Windows 7 PCs from the sales department of customer A" are possible.
  • The speed dial tiles show the online status of the respective computers directly in the address book. This allows users to see which of their contacts are available or offline at a glance.
  • Other new features and improvements in AnyDesk 3.0 include an upgraded user interface, bookmarking of favourites and individual sorting options in the speed dial list as well as an optimised chat view. Furthermore, our program interface has undergone a complete refresh. Everything now shines with a contemporary sheen that blends in well with modern Windows systems. We love it, and your staff and clients will also come to do so.
  • Focus on privacy and security:
  • As you know, we take security very seriously and this was a central aspect in the development of AnyDesk 3.0. Your valuable data stays at home. Your computers cannot be seen by unauthorised parties. Because remote operation is protected using the same technology used in online banking, with forgery-proof TLS 1.2 encryption and Erlang technology. It couldn’t be more secure.

  • Fixed a crash which occured when the monitor was switched several times in Win 8/10.
  • Fixed a bug which could cause AnyDesk to transmit inefficiently (low fps) when the remote machine was running Windows 8.1 or Windows 10. This also could lead to a slowdown of the target machine.
  • The remote cursor was not rendered correctly when the Direct Draw render mode was selected. The Direct Draw renderer now draws the remote cursor as intended.
  • A black image was shown instead of the remote screen in certain cases when "Use fast render method" was selected in the view options. The image is rendered normally now if this mode is selected.
  • If a 16 bpp mode is selected, the Direct Draw renderer now tests if a 32 bpp mode is supported before falling back to the gdi renderer when the lower mode is not supported by the hardware. The d3d renderer now supports 16 bpp colour depth as well and uses the same fallback mechanism.
  • In some cases, AnyDesk did not transmit any image (black image) when the screen was rotated in Windows 7 with Aero enabled.

This enables you to type special characters on your keyboard regardless if the remote keyboard supports them. You can disable this feature in the main menu in case you want raw key to be transmitted. This is useful for example for playing games which depend on the hardware key code.
  • Select "Auto-Adjust resolution" from the main menu during a session in order to change the remote screen resolution to fit the dimensions of your local AnyDesk window. You can use this feature as often as needed, for example after you maximized the AnyDesk window. After the session ends, the remote resolution is restored to the original mode.
  • Added privacy tab to user settings. You can now decide what to broadcast, your windows user name or a custom one, your windows account image, a custom one or none.

  • Indeterminate (default behaviour): Use the 16 bit render mode on single processor systems.
  • Unchecked: Never use 16 bits per pixel mode. Uncheck if you have a single processor machine but the image quality is too low.
