Netop Vision 6.9.1 Released

Posted by Codework Tech on Jun 8th, 2010 | 0 comments home title

Netop Vision 6.9.1 supports 64-bit Operating Systems.

A maintenance release of Vision6 is now available. Version 6.9.1 adds support for 64-bit operating systems and fixes a number of issues teachers encountered when using Vision6 with the Windows 7 or Vista operating systems. This release is available at no charge to customers with valid Netop upgrade insurance (NUI). Download version 6.9.1 here.

Updates in this maintenance release

1. Support for 64-bit operating systems
Vision6 now provides support for 64-bit versions of Microsoft Windows operating systems.

2. Student computers visible in dashboard before login
Vision6 can now see student computers even if the students have not yet logged in. On Windows Vista and on Windows 7, the Vision Student software did not connect to the classroom when Windows’ logon screen was still active. This was a problem in Windows Vista and Windows 7 only and has now been fixed so that Vision Student software connects even before a student has logged in.

3. Improved integration with Firefox 3.6.3
Surf-Lock now integrates smoothly with version 3.6.3 of Firefox and displays site lists.

4. Drag and drop computers to a classroom
An issue preventing some computers from being added to a classroom via drag and drop has been fixed. In the classroom wizard it was not possible to add a computer to a classroom by using a drag-and-drop operation. This was a problem in Windows Vista and Windows 7 only and has now been fixed so that a computer can be included by drag-and-drop.
