User Reviews

  • good program, of course there are cons, but it's not bad
  • saved
  • Works as expected. No issues after using for the past 4 months. Setup was easy.
  • This is one very handy piece of software, I use it to run Eclipse from a Linux box on my Windows desktop. It used to work well, but right now the VcXsrv program disappears after about 30 seconds. Not sure if this is due to a recent Windows 10 update, but would love to help fix it if I can.
  • Works fine with Remote Desktop Manager under Windows 10.
