Vectir 3.6.2 featuring a virtual keyboard and mouse driver for Windows is now available. The virtual keyboard/mouse driver makes it possible to interact with the Windows logon screen and remotely log on to your Windows account. Currently the virtual keyboard/mouse driver will only work with Windows 8/8.1 but will be available for Windows 7 as soon as Microsoft release an SHA-2 update for kernel mode drivers.
Other updates in Vectir 3.6.2 include a components section in the installer which allows selection/deselection of Vectir plugins and remote profiles. This will mainly benefit new Vectir users as deselected plugins that have previously been installed will not be uninstalled (however this is possible manually).
The keyboard command setup dialog has also been updated with Ctrl+Alt+Del and Numpad Enter commands. It is also possible to generate keyboard combinations that were not possible before such as Win + Shift + Left/Right/Up/Down. These will currently only work on Windows 8/8.1 as they require the new keyboard/mouse driver.

- Virtual mouse/keyboard driver included
