      I just downloaded it myself from same link and tried, look on the screenshot, versions are matching, it works to me. I think you must have some different problem, maybe firewall?

        @petr-bena it's definitely not a firewall, XO is working. Maybe the problem is in windows 2008 server r2, I run xencenter on it. Perhaps it does not support any new encryption protocols, this is an assumption.

          AbyssMoon I run it on Windows 10, but I think it's weird it worker before and now it doesn't. Do you have any other newer Windows available to try it on?

            @petr-bena I tried to run the 24158 build on windows 10, everything really works, thank you. The problem is with the outdated windows 2008 server R2 operating system.
            P.S. I've never had it work on this machine with xp-ng 8.3, I thought the reason was the latest patch.

              @petr-bena Dear Petr-bena
              Does you have public this Builds (follow your screenshot) ? My xcp-ng download from your first build is 24158.

                AbyssMoon the tip of the development branch (commit cd4c62ee) builds in VS2022 and produces a functional XCP-ng Center. If you have the tools, you can just fork the repo (or clone it) and build locally.

                The github workflow doesn't appear to be working, as far as I can tell, so perhaps that is why the 'latest' release is from January.

                  Seeing that 8.3 is released now, I will do some cleanup of what I have, and get a 24.11 release out after some testing with 8.3 GA.

                  On XenServer, This is designed for XCP-ng, not XenServer, so its support will be limited if at all supported. I seen some bug reports for XenServer, I will close those as wontfix, sorry.

                    Also, I do apologize for slow updates. I have been working on tons of projects and will try to get some time to get this a good alternative to people who want a desktop app.

                        @michael-manley Thank you Michael (and patch- and issue-submitters), some clients/users find XCP-ng Center faster for some tasks and like it for familiarity's sake.

                        Your efforts are much appreciated for making XCP-ng less daunting for a number of people I know - thanks again.

                        If you are still perchance looking for potential additions, having a (selectable/slide out) right-side of screen (or bottom perhaps) area for showing the running list of tasks (current and history) would make seeing what is going on easier (a quality-of-life issue) rather than switching to it for users (thus making usage and tracing of 'events' faster).

                        Something like that would be really welcome in XO too 😉 !

                              Hello Everyone,

                              I put a release out of vNext Build 24308 as a normal release. Although its a vNext build, its pretty stable and works with 8.3.

                              I plan to do some changes before 24.11 comes out in GA but I just wanted to get something out now so you all have a version that is 8.3 compatible.

                              Please test and report any bugs you may notice. I will mention also 24.11 will change how settings are done which will allow for a portable version of XCP-ng Center. More to come later.

                                Thank you for new realize.
                                I install it on my PC and connect to my pools.
                                First impressions are good, works fine, after 1/2 usage I don't get any error of found bug.
                                I will use this version and report any issues if I found any.

                                    I have waiting for update for XCP-ng Center for so many years. Now adding new disks to VM when you have a lot of LUN connected to pool works very fast ans smooth.

                                      I have found a bug which occurs in latest version and also in nightly versions of XCP-ng Center. We you have server list with few connection it takes about 20-25 after inputing master password when they will appear.

                                      Missing connections list after inputing master password:

                                      Connection list appears after 20-25 seconds of waiting:

                                          Hello Everyone!

                                          Thought I'd get peoples views on this. Since XCP-ng Center is Windows only and basically stuck on .NET Framework 4.8, I am considering switching the UI over to Avalonia, rewriting the whole UI for that change, and upgrade to .NET 8.0. This will also allow Linux users to use XCP-ng Center as well.
