I am unable to paste text or type while using Fleet manager in certain windows.

2

When using the RDP session of fleet manager, I get strange errors when trying to type into certain windows. For example, I can type into the search bar and notepad, but when I open a PowerShell window, it doesn't respond to key inputs. The Command window works but the PowerShell window is what I use for a lot of admin tasks. Its making fleet manager almost unusable now. Is there a way to fix this?

  • I'm experiencing the same issue with my bastion host and it makes fleet manager almost useless.

I was able to solve this issue, by default the PSReadline module installed is 2.0.0, by doing a force install of the version 2.2.6 it solve the issue.

Install-Module -Name PSReadLine -Force

You can fix if on every windows computer at once using a Fleet manager Run command (powershell script) with those command Bellow :

Install-PackageProvider NuGet -Force Set-PSRepository PSGallery -InstallationPolicy Trusted Install-Module PSReadLine -Repository PSGallery -force

Hi,

Have you tried below which basically applies copy/paste for all operations.

`Open the AWS Systems Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/.

In the navigation pane, choose Fleet Manager.

-or-

If the AWS Systems Manager home page opens first, choose the menu icon (  ) to open the navigation pane, and then choose Fleet Manager in the navigation pane.

Select the link of the managed node with the files you want to copy, or cut and paste.

In the Tools menu, choose File system.

To copy or cut a file, select the File name of the directory that contains the file you want to copy or cut. To copy or cut a directory, choose the button next to the directory that you want to copy or cut and then proceed to step 8.

Choose the button next to the file you want to copy or cut.

In the Actions menu, choose Copy or Cut.

In the File system view, choose the button next to the directory you want to paste the file in.

In the Actions menu, choose Paste.`

  • The question says "unable to paste TEXT", it's not about file. It's an text input problem

  • Same issue when trying to remote desktop SSO using fleet manager for the following images

    • Windows_Server-2022-English-Core-EKS_Optimized-1.25-2023.02.14
    • Windows_Server-2022-English-Core-ECS_Optimized-2023.02.21

    I can type "15" to "Exit menu and go to powershell", but then no keyboard inputs are shown on screen. I can however copy paste stuff right clicking on the terminal window.

    Any idea why this is occuring ?
