Windows Roaming Client
03/24 March 24 – Windows Roaming Client v3.3.3 Production
We've released
Windows Roaming Client v3.3.3
to address a DNS restoration issue affecting machines with multiple static DNS servers configured.🪲 Hotfix
DNS Server Restoration on Multi-Server Static Configurations
– Fixed an issue where only the primary DNS server was restored when the agent service stopped on machines with multiple static DNS servers. Secondary DNS servers were silently dropped, leaving affected machines with an incomplete DNS configuration.All configured DNS servers are now correctly restored when the agent stops or restarts.

✨ What's New
Enhanced Roaming Client In-Line Editor
A new bulk in-line editing tool in the
Roaming Client Management dashboard
allows administrators to apply settings directly to individual agents. Supported actions include:- Policy assignment
- Filtering mode (DNS PreCheck, Classic, or Custom)
- Agent update settings (channel and auto updates)
- CyberSight configuration (enablement and browser extension)
This provides greater flexibility for managing device-specific configurations.
Expanded DNS Resolver Visibility
The Overview page now displays both
IPv4 and IPv6 DNSFilter resolver addresses
in the footer. Selecting DNSFilter Resolvers
opens a drawer showing all resolver IPs grouped by Primary and Secondary, with quick copy-to-clipboard functionality.Plus general performance and stability improvements across the platform.

We've released
Windows Roaming Client v3.3.2
to address a critical network connectivity issue affecting machines with static IP/DNS configurations.🪲 Hotfix
DNS Settings Restoration on Static IP/DNS Configurations
– Fixed an issue where the agent incorrectly overwrote static IP/DNS configurations on restart, causing complete loss of network connectivity with no remote remediation path.The agent now correctly restores DNS from a saved backup on restart and leaves interfaces untouched when no valid backup exists, restoring 2.x behavior.

Privacy Mode Inheritance for MSP Organizations
– Fixed an issue where MSP Organizations configured to inherit Privacy Mode from their MSP dashboard were incorrectly restricted from accessing user-level data even when the MSP's Privacy Mode was set to Standard.MSP Organizations now correctly resolve inherited Privacy Mode settings, ensuring that features and data visibility behave as expected based on the configured privacy level.

✨ What’s New
PII Privacy Mode
PII Privacy Mode is now available, giving organizations more control over how user information is displayed and exported. Admins can choose between three privacy levels:
- Standard (default)– Displays all available user and device details
- Device-Only– Redacts user-specific information while preserving limited device context
- Maximum Privacy– Removes personal identifiers from display and exports
Privacy settings can be configured by MSP and Organization administrators in
Settings
. ⚠️
Known Issue
: PII setting updates cannot be saved in Firefox. Use an alternate browser, such as Chrome or Safari, to complete the change.🪲 Bug Fixes
Integrations Tab Visibility
Resolved an issue where the Integrations tab could appear inconsistently when accessing the dashboard through whitelabeled domains. The tab now displays correctly across all supported dashboard URLs.
Plus general performance and stability improvements across the platform.

Windows Roaming Client
03/16 March 16 - Windows Roaming Client v3.3.0 Production
Windows Roaming Client
v3.3.0
is now available in the Production channel. This release brings together several improvements introduced during the 3.x Beta cycle, focusing on modern DNS filtering with DNS PreCheck
and expanded endpoint visibility with CyberSight
, alongside major architectural and stability upgrades.✨ What’s New
DNS PreCheck – Modern Device-Level DNS Protection
DNS PreCheck introduces a transparent DNS proxy that evaluates DNS requests locally on the device before they leave the network stack. This modern filtering approach improves reliability on restrictive or unmanaged networks while reducing conflicts with local DNS settings.
Administrators can configure behavior directly from the dashboard using the
Connection & Filtering Mode framework
, including:- Connection Mode– Transparent Proxy or DNS Loopback
- Filtering Mode– DNS PreCheck or Classic DNS filtering
- Failover Mode– Fail Open or Fail Closed
This flexibility allows organizations to balance connectivity and enforcement based on their environment.
CyberSight Activity Visibility
CyberSight provides
device-level activity insight
that complements DNS filtering data. It records time-stamped activity to help administrators understand what occurred around security events or DNS blocks.CyberSight delivers a unified timeline that combines:
- Full browser URL visibility
- Application activity
- Device state changes
This additional context helps teams investigate alerts, detect unusual behavior earlier, and troubleshoot operational issues more effectively.
🛠 Platform Improvements
This release also introduces significant improvements to the Windows Roaming Client platform:
- Modernized client architecturebuilt on updated Windows frameworks for improved reliability and maintainability
- Improved configuration management, logging, and diagnostics to simplify deployment and troubleshooting
- Reduced installer size and improved runtime efficiencyfor faster deployments
- Improved OS compatibility detection, automatically disabling unsupported networking features while maintaining protection through Classic DNS filtering
🪲 Stability & Reliability Enhancements
Throughout the Beta cycle, numerous improvements were made to strengthen reliability across diverse environments, including:
- Improved handling of network transitions, sleep/wake states, and startup conditions
- Enhanced DNS failover and IPv6 compatibility behavior
- More reliable VPN compatibility detection and filtering behavior
- Increased stability in networking libraries and service communication
Together, these updates deliver a more resilient client designed to support modern Windows environments while providing deeper visibility and stronger DNS protection.

ARM64-based Windows devices
.A dedicated
ARM64 installer
is available in the Beta Channel alongside the standard x64 installer, enabling organizations to deploy the latest client architecture on modern ARM-powered hardware.🛠
Improved OS Compatibility Handling
The client now validates the Windows operating system version at runtime to ensure advanced networking features run only on supported platforms.
If an unsupported OS version is detected:
- Transparent Proxy / DNS PreCheckfeatures are automatically disabled
- The client safely falls back to Classic DNS filtering (loopback mode)so devices remain protected
See our knowledge base for Supported OS and End of Life details

Stability Improvements
Networking Library Updates
– Updated underlying networking libraries improve reliability and maintain compatibility across supported Windows environments.To deliver improved performance, security, and long-term reliability, DNSFilter is transitioning all customers to the
latest Relay architecture (v1.4.0 and higher)
.What’s Changing
Customers running Relays installed using the
legacy installation method
will need to perform a fresh installation
using the current Relay installer to continue receiving updates and support.Timeline
- 60-day upgrade windowto migrate to the new Relay architecture
- After May 5, 2026, legacy Relay versions will reach end-of-life and may experience service interruptions
How to Update
Follow the deployment instructions in our
Relay v1.4.0+ Deployment Guide
to install the latest version.Upgrading ensures your environment continues to benefit from improved stability, security enhancements, and ongoing platform support.
