Quitting Rustdesk on Windows causes service removal leads to "lost control disaster"

Kylejustknows opened this issue · comments

Bug Description

It is so easy to exit Ruskdesk on a Windows server.
But doing that the Ruskdesk services is automatically removed.
There is no way to connect back to that machine again, even remote restart the VPS can not gain back control.

Has to go through a painful backend screen control to install rustdesk service again.

How to Reproduce

Exit Rustdesk on Windows using the Tray Icon.
It will somehow Uninstall Rustdesk completely.

Expected Behavior

The

  • End user space task (disconnect temporarily), and
  • Uninstall Rustdesk service (disconnect permanently)

Should be two different tasks.
The uninstalling should give much clear warning.

The "Rustdesk service" existing gives user a false impression that the service should be there even exit the user app.
