I am using EchoVNC (2.35) on a windows 2003 server machine. Last month I discovered a virus on the machine.
Cleaned the machine and found that the BITS service for Windows Update wasn’t working anymore.
Found a repair tool that fixed it.
But the thing that doesn’t work anymore is the download option in the EchoVNC viewer. Sometimes the download starts and gets stuck at a few percent. But most of the times it doesn’t start at all and gets stuck (just an empty progress bar). What Windows component does this download use? If I know that I can see if that’s functioning.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Ha Dirk,
I downloaded the bitsadmin tool. I think it was part of a wider Microsoft Windows Utility Toolkit. It's only commandline. I used bitsadmin /util /repairservice /force and it worked again.
After donwloading the Windows updates and restarting the machine even the EchoVNC downloaded fine again.
I immediately installed a good anti virus program….
