RemoteManager Quickstart & Setup
Get started with Vyntech RemoteManager — an open-source, native Windows 10/11 multi-session connection and credential manager designed for cloud engineers, systems administrators, and DevOps teams.
💡Why RemoteManager? The Windows Credential Overwrite Problem
Standard Windows Remote Desktop (mstsc.exe) indexes saved credentials in Windows Credential Manager strictly by target hostname or IP (TERMSRV/192.168.1.50).
Domain\Auditor) permanently destroys and overwrites your primary administrator password on that machine.RemoteManager eliminates this flaw by decoupling credentials into an encrypted, local-first engine with zero credential collisions, allowing dozens of isolated accounts per host.
System Requirements
Installation & Execution
1Option A: Run from Source via .NET CLI
Clone the official GitHub repository and launch the app in one command:
# 1. Clone repository
git clone git@github.com:vyntechau/RemoteManager.git
cd RemoteManager
# 2. Build and run the WPF application
dotnet run --project src/RemoteManager.App
2Option B: Run Compiled Portable Binary
Once built, the standalone executable resides in the output directory and requires zero installation:
First Connection Workflow
Add Encrypted Credential
Open Credentials and create a stored profile (e.g. DOMAIN\Administrator). The password is encrypted instantly using Windows DPAPI.
Create Target Connection
Click + New Connection, enter your server IP or domain, select the protocol (RDP, SSH, VNC, or Web), and link your stored credential.
Launch & Multitask
Double-click to open in an embedded tab. Switch between multiple active servers, pop out into detached windows, or press F11 for borderless fullscreen.
