Re: How to create dynamic volumes
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
That is dynamic memory allocation. I'm afraid it is not supported in our RAM Disk. If you require a product that does it, there is one by the name of ImDisk.
Re: How to create dynamic volumes
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
Assuming you are referring to Dynamic Disks, you can create these by first creating a RAM disk with HDD emulation, and then converting it to a dynamic disk in Windows Disk Management (diskmgmt.msc). There is however little point in doing so, because the configuration will be lost after a reboot. Normally, dynamic disks are used for aggregated and fault-tolerant storages, neither of which really
Re: Installing Connection Emulator and Bandwidth Manager together
3 years ago, by Ann in Connection Emulator Forum
Unfortunately, these two products cannot co-exist on one computer as they both rely on the same network driver. You may have to uninstall both of them, and then install the one that you need more, i.e. either Bandwidth Manager or Connection Emulator.
Re: Bridge is not limited by the rules
3 years ago, by Ann in Bandwidth Manager Forum
We have received and checked your ruleset, and compared the data with your screen shots. It looks like everything functions correctly. The sample rule you referred to, 'ChabilMar', has a monthly quota of 2000 GB with the initial speed of 205 megabit/s and the reduced speed of 154 megabit/s. This rule has used about 1400 GB in March so far, thus the initial speed limit of 205 megabit/s still app
Re: System tray graph stopped displaying
3 years ago, by Ann in NetGenius Forum
It sounds like the Taskbar Extension component of NetGenius is no longer showing. This may have been caused by a Windows update, or by some changes in settings. Try clicking an empty space on the Windows taskbar, then choosing Toolbars, and then checking NetGenius Extension, as shown below. If for some reason NetGenius Extension is not in the list of toolbars, you may need to reinstall NetGe
Re: Bridge is not limited by the rules

It doesn't matter whether you bridge LAN-to-WAN or WAN-to-LAN as the bridge is symmetrical. We could I take a look at your entire ruleset to help you better. In the main menu, please go to File - Export Rules - Save to a DB file, then compress it with ZIP and send it to us.
Re: Bridge is not limited by the rules

The grey circle does not indicate that anything is wrong. It is simply the default colour for any bridge. If the traffic is passing normally, but the rules don't capture anything, it is most likely that they don't match the traffic. Try creating a single rule with tracking by going to the Advanced tab and choosing 'Tracking by source IP address'. Then create an any-to-any rule matching IPv4
Re: How to move application window that opens off screen

To reset the application position back to the laptop screen, you can edit the config file directly by doing the following: Exit the Port Mapper and make sure the application is not running. Open this file in any text editor: C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\SoftPerfect\Switch Port Mapper\NSMapGUI.xml Locate the following parameters in that XML file: <Top>, <Left>, <Widt
Re: Adding Ping command to the device context menu
3 years ago, by Ann in Network Scanner Forum
You can add any command, including ping. Our Network Scanner is very flexible in that regard. Simply go to Settings - Applications and add Ping with this command line: ping.exe -t %0 After that, it will be added to the menu, and you will be able to invoke it whenever required.
Re: How to copy RAM disk image to a backup server
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
As mentioned earlier, I don't recommend that you use an image file in this setup. It's an extra layer of complexity and an extra potential failure point. For example, if you start copying the image from the hot server to the NAS while the image is being written into, the resulting file will likely to be damaged (and this is probably the reason why you get that error). In my opinion, you shouldn
Re: How to add custom IP address range
3 years ago, by Ann in WiFi Guard Forum
You can configure a custom IP range for scanning on the Advanced tab in Settings, as shown in the screen shot below. Enter your range as 192.168.1.1-192.168.3.255, and WiFi Guard should be able to scan all those IP addresses. Please note that if you have a router between those subnets, WiFi Guard will be unable to detect devices in other subnets or track their MAC addresses, because the ARP tra
Re: How to copy RAM disk image to a backup server
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
Generally, having a RAM disk image in a network folder is not supported. The reason for it is that the RAM Disk software is initialised early in system boot, before the network becomes available. Another issue here is that if for some reason the image gets partially written or otherwise damaged, you will not be able to load its data to either server. I am not entirely certain what you are tryin

Thank you for your feedback. We will see what can be done for the next release.
Re: How to change installer destination location when installing via CMD
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
Yes, you can use the /DIR parameter for that. All command line parameters of Inno Setup are supported. Quote /DIR="x:\dirname" Overrides the default directory name displayed on the Select Destination Location wizard page. A fully qualified pathname must be specified.
Re: Browser cache relocation for a different profile
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
I believe there is individual cache in each profile. In this case you can use the --disk-cache-dir (assuming you are using Chrome) to redirect cache for all profiles. How to relocate Google Chrome cache The default location of Chrome cache is C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache , which can be changed by adding a few parameters. For that, right-cl
Re: Errors when loading config or saving settings at launching or closing the app

To fix these errors, simply close the Network Scanner and then delete the damaged configuration file in C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\SoftPerfect Network Scanner\netscan.xml After that, start the application again and everything should work well.
Re: Topology mapper and SSH client integration

I am afraid topology discovery is not currently on our to-do list. There is a number of other applications that do that. However, integration of SSH clients and other third-party applications has been available in our Network Scanner for a long time. See Options - Applications tab:
Re: File date and time updates
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
RAM Disk implements a simple block storage, it can't really affect what happens to file dates. What you have encountered is a Windows feature known as tunnelling. When a name is removed from a directory (rename or delete), its short/long name pair and its creation time are saved in a cache, keyed by the name that was removed. When a name is added to a directory (rename or create), the cache is
Re: Command in .bat file does not return
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
Since the built-in image saving is not suitable for your purposes, I would recommend using a file-level backup program (e.g. an archiver like 7Z) to compress everything on the RAM disk into a single container. The added advantage of this method is that you could have incremental backups, and the files can be extracted from the archive at any time.
Re: Command in .bat file does not return
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
I am not entirely sure why the BAT file does not return, but most likely this happens because Windows 10 has tighter security, and BAT files run by Windows Scheduler don't have access to the desktop where the RAM Disk application is running. Also, I am curious why you are using a BAT file for backups when RAM Disk offers direct functionality? There is a setting that allows you to back up RAM di
Re: Hide/show inactive devices

It is possible to add it, but the same outcome can already be achieved with a filter, like "Response Time Not Empty". As inactive devices have a blank response time, such filter will hide them.
Re: Suggestion: Limit the quantity of email notifications
3 years ago, by Ann in WiFi Guard Forum
WiFi Guard will not send identical e-mails, but if the list of detected devices changes, new e-mails will still be sent. For example, if WiFi Guard finds an unknown device AABBCCDDEEFF, it sends an e-mail. If it finds the same unknown device again, it will not send more e-mails about it (until you restart the application). However, if any other devices come or go, the list of detected devices
Re: Fully volatile system with boot from a RAM disk
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
No, that is not possible with our RAM Disk. I don't think it's possible even in theory, as in your scenario all RAM would be wiped in the last step (USB removed and reboot to RAM disk) when BIOS does standard memory testing. You may be better off using software like VeraCrypt to simply encrypt everything for privacy and security.
Re: NetWorx Speed Meter vs SpeedTest.net
3 years ago, by Ann in NetWorx Forum
Unfortunately, it is hard to tell in such cases. I just did one test in Speed Meter and another one in speedtest.net, and their results were very similar, see below. I guess the difference you saw could be due to a temporary congestion, or from multi-vs-single connection, as by default speedtest.net does multiconnection whereas NetWorx uses a single connection.
Re: MacOS app doesn't appear after it has been opened
3 years ago, by Ann in NetWorx Forum
NetWorx should work on MacOS 11.x or, any older or newer version. It is worth mentioning though that when you open NetWorx, it does not display any window of user interface. Instead, being a service app, it creates an icon in the menu bar as shown in the screen shot below. Please check if there is an icon there after you open NetWorx as that's how you can access NetWorx functions.

Have you tried completely uninstalling the Connection Emualtor, rebooting, and then installing the latest version, as advised above? Version 1.7.9 is almost two years old. This issue has been fixed in the latest version. Please try the current release of the Connection Emulator and see if it solves the problem for you.
Re: Deleting and recreating the Temp folder automatically
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
Is there a particular reason why you want to create a temporary folder in a non-volatile image file and then automatically delete it each time? RAM disk .img files are used for non-volatile (persistent) data, but in this case the data is purposefully kept instead of being automatically deleted. So the scenario you are asking about, where a folder is created for permanent data storage and yet ge
Re: Missing Router SNMP MIB Query option in Lookup Methods
3 years ago, by Ann in Network Scanner Forum
It looks like a config upgrade issue. We were unable to reproduce it, but there are two ways to fix it. Either of these two methods should make all four MAC-address resolution settings reappear in the list: ARP query, NetBios query, WMI query, and Router SNMP MIB query. If you are okay with losing your current configuration and starting over, simply choose File - Current Config - Reset to Defa
Re: "Browse For Folder" dialog doesn't show RAM disk in the directory list
3 years ago, by Ann in RAM Disk Forum
Please download and try this updated Cache Relocator zip file. It should default to "This PC" rather than "Desktop" when browsing for folders, and display all available drives. Another reason for this problem may be due to a Windows peculiarity: if there are too many files/folders/icons on the Desktop, the "Browse for Folder" Windows dialog can't handle it all. It
