SQLite

Remote Desktop Manager's SQLite workspace is ideal for single user and stand-alone situations. More powerful and more flexible than the XML file format, it also supports a few of the advanced workspace options like Logs and Attachments.

Highlights

  • Full connection log and attachments support.

Key points to consider:

  • All passwords are encrypted by default by Remote Desktop Manager. You can specify a custom password to fully encrypt the content of the SQLite database.

  • Password recovery is not possible, the data will be unrecoverable if you cannot authenticate. Please ensure you backup the password in a safe place.

  • SQLite supports an unlimited number of simultaneous readers, but will only allow one writer at any instant in time. For this reason Remote Desktop Manager does not support sharing an SQLite workspace between several users by storing it on a network drive. If you want to share your data and work in a team environment with your colleagues, please use one of the advanced workspaces. Please consult SQLite.org for more information.

Master key management

You can specify a master key to further encrypt your data. Specify it at creation time. If the workspace already exists, you can modify the master key in File – Manage master key.
