    Really?!

    (Also: Are you running this forum on a potato? It’s been about a decade since I’ve used something this laggy…)

    Hi !

    Did you use the “Password Protection and Encryption” in the spacedesk Driver Console > CONTROL ?
    I had the same problem and now it’s ok.

    Regards

    What do you mean? You enabled it or disabled it?

    You have to use it.

    Hi @cartevitale77,
    To use the keyboard together with a licensed viewer, you will have to enable Password Protection and Encryption option in the spacedesk Console.
    this security measure is implemented to prevent unauthorized use of the keyboard from other users.

    but If you are using the free version of the viewer, you will be able to use the keyboard over a USB connection.

    Thanks everybody, it does work like that!

    But I would suggest to…
    1. check whether somebody attempts to use this feature with a business license. And if they do, tell them in the notification that they have to enable password protection.
    2. question whether you’re really providing security here. Because an attacker who manages to get a spacedesk connection can simply use the software keyboard.

    Short comment to your statement 2) above:
    Are you talking about Windows Software Keyboard?
    The on-screen keyboard which needs touch/mouse to operate?
    This does not have much of an attack surface for various reasons:
    – Most important: Mouse and touch cannot be scripted to operate keyboard in an automated way
    – Opening of Windows Software Keyboard will not go by unnoticed in mirroring operations
    – etc.etc.etc.

    Why would simulated hardware keyboard usage go unnoticed? Surely, I’d notice e.g. a terminal popping up?

    And why can mouse/touch not be scripted? Can’t you simply script clicks on the coordinates of the respective keys?

    This is a support forum.
    We do not have resources to discuss general security fundamentals.
    Very simple statement to wrap up this topic:
    Everything can be hacked or privacy corrupted if the attacker has high enough skills, resources and focus.
    All anyone can do is reduce attack surface.
    Mouse/touch remoting attack surface is magnitudes less than keyboard.
