Known Issues

This page is Tricerat's registry of acknowledged issues: defects, limitations, and external breakages we know about, with their status and where the fix or workaround lives. If you're wondering whether the problem you're seeing is a known product issue, check here first. Security advisories, like our response to a Microsoft CVE batch, live in Security Advisories. For step-by-step diagnosis of symptoms that aren't listed, the troubleshooting guides are the procedure library — and version-specific issues appear in each release's release notes.

Long-Standing Known Issues​

These apply across current ScrewDrivers v7 releases and aren't expected to change in a near-term release.

Report viewer overlays dialog windows in ScrewDrivers Administration — If the active tab is Reporting, the report viewer hides portions of the File→Options and Help→About windows due to a technical limitation. Workaround: switch to another tab before opening those windows. We don't expect this to be fixed in a future version.

Compatibility and Third-Party Issues​

Citrix VDA 2109+ blocks virtual channels by default — Citrix changed the default virtual channel policy in VDA 2109, which hides ScrewDrivers printers and scanners until the allow list is configured. Status: configuration required — see the allow list fix.

Something not listed?​

If your issue isn't here or in the troubleshooting guides, it may be new or specific to your environment. Check that you're on the latest release first — many issues are fixed in point releases (release notes) — then contact Tricerat Support. Support can confirm whether behavior you're seeing is known internally and will make sure genuinely new issues get documented here.
