The following is a list of known issues outstanding in this release.
- Installation
-
- On Windows 2008 Server and Windows 2012 Server, install the Rumba pre-requisites manually. After installing .NET Framework,
restart the machine before installing Rumba. If the machine is not restarted before running Rumba, a problem might occur with
Rumba's default fonts.
- Do not install different Rumba installation packages on the same machine. For example,
Rumba_Office.exe and
Rumba_Mainframe.exe. Doing so can cause unexpected behavior.
- Windows 10
- When installing Rumba on Windows 10, some shortcuts may not appear in
. To ensure the shortcuts appear, sign out of Windows, then sign in again.
- Installation of .NET Framework is not supported on the following versions of Windows:
- Version 1507
- Version 1511 (November 2015 update)
- Terminal Services
-
- Installing or uninstalling Rumba
9.5 SP1 on a Terminal Server must take place from the console and not from a terminal client.
- Terminal Services should be switched off when installing Rumba on Windows 2003 with Windows Terminal Services (WTS) and using
a value other than the default for the
PrivateDir environment variable. This is due to a WTS limitation in Windows 2003. If Terminal Services is not turned off,
PrivateDir does not get interpreted and the registry entry is invalid. As a workaround, you can set the
PrivateDir registry key manually. However, after installation, you should verify that the value in the registry key is correct.
- Performance
-
To avoid poor context menu performance, we recommend that you:
- Open Windows
Control Panel.
- Choose
.
- Choose
Settings in the
Performance frame, then uncheck
Fade or slide menus into view.
- UNIX macros
- Copy and paste operations are not recorded correctly in UNIX macros and generate an error when a macro is played.
- VBA Add-On
- When planning to install the VBA Add-On on a clean machine, it is highly recommended that you:
- Install Rumba 9.5
- Install Rumba 9.5 SP1.
- Start Rumba at least once.
Then install the VBA Add-On.
