As a Right Click Tools administrator, you can pre-define a default Recast Management Server/Recast Cloud URL using a registry value. Setting the URL ahead of time prevents RCT Browser Extension users from having to manually configure this browser extension setting in order to run multi-device actions and some advanced features, like the System Information side panel.
NOTE: A registry-defined value will not overwrite an existing user-configured RMS URL.
Minimum Right Click Tools version: 5.12.2609.1102
To set the RMS/Recast Cloud URL in the Registry:
Set the ServerUri value in the Registry key for the browser you're using:
- Edge -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\3rdparty\extensions\<policy_name>\policy - Chrome -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\3rdparty\extensions\<policy_name>\policy
Forcing a quicker policy update
Browsers are sometime delayed in updating the policy cache, so you might not see the policy URL right away.
To force a policy update:
- Close all browser windows and reopen them. Navigate to the browser's policy settings and click Reload policies.
- Reboot the computer.
