    I don't know if this helps ... but when I start "veyon-server" as a login-Script I get this message: [image: 1621874370270-screenshot_20210524_183807.png]

    Unfortunately there are limitations by the VNC protocol which could lead to the latencies you've described. Where do you observe the latencies? In the monitoring view with thumbnails or also while remote controlling/viewing a computer?

    What's the output of systemctl status veyon? Maybe you need to enable the Veyon Service via systemctl enable veyon?

    @studentloans999 Did you change the access group of the public key file to "Guest" or "Everyone" after importing? BTW the authentication test will only work on the master computer since it tests whether a private key file is readable and matches the public key file, so it's not an error if it "fails" on the client computers.

    Hi, There is a way, besides of Veyon which could meet easily your need, and give you ideas : BGinfo. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/bginfo This is a small exe launched automaticaly at each start up of a computer and stopped immédiately after : function : create a desktop wallpaper with the information you may need, color wished etc... Then you can have: user name, host, group, IP, MAC... you can chose position and size of all this. for me top right, about 1cm height characters (i can see them in real from my desk and from veyon also) [image: 1618611333680-bginfo.png] Good luck

    Have you verified that the key pair IDs are identical on all computers? Did you set the access group for public and private key files properly? The public key file needs to be readable by everyone/guest on all computers while the private key file should be accessible by Veyon Master users on the teacher computers.

    @drewloker said in 4.4.2 - Downgrade options? CRASHES Master and Clients, No Demo: Demo still doesn't work. I brought the whole lab up to 4.5.4.0 It went to Demo, showed my screen for a few second on a couple of the 7 students logged in a lab of 26 clients. Then, Demo stopped working even on the couple that did get my screen. I was able to back out of Demo mode with out crashing their computer. Hello i have the same problem .. i opened a new topic: https://veyon.nodebb.com/topic/1258/veyon-4-5-4-vnc-serveur-crash-on-demo-mode where I put the logs to see if tobydox manages to understand what is wrong ...

    Yes it is laggy. I love to let my students play. They usually complain about lag. I have decided to test this. I told on of the students to keep there game open and leave. I opened the app it was laggy and the lag stopped when I closed it.

    I do have quite the same experience with a number of 25 computers in wifi. You can probably increase the response by having the master on RJ45 network cable if possible.

    Yes, /NoStartMenuFolder is indeed the correct option. Thank you for pointing out the missing entry in the documentation which just has been added.
