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
Configure the RMS/Recast Cloud URL
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
Refresh Browser Policies (optional)
Your browser's policies will update automatically, but you can also choose to manually trigger an update.
To force an immediate refresh of your browser's policies:
1. Open edge://policy or chrome://policy.
2. Click Reload Policies to refresh the applied settings.
Check Policy Application
To check that the policy is applied:
1. Open the Browser Extension's Right Click Tools Configuration window by clicking on the Recast icon in your browser toolbar followed by the Configure button.
2. Confirm that the policy-managed configuration appears.
