Remove duplicates removes name...

There was an error rendering this rich post.

When we migrate devices in TeamViewer Manager Console, the last step is to "remove duplicates".

When we do this "some" (from 30 PCs so far, 3 have had this problem) of the devices are no longer displayed by name, it just shows the ID number. When I go into the properties of the device, the name is still there, it just won't be displayed in the name column, when looking at the group.

Is there a way to get it to display the name again?

Note the name from the properties dialogue box (not all users are this lucky) . In the TeamViewer APP under devices select TeamViewer id for the device and select "three dots" in right hand column. Click Edit, Edit device information and update Alias. In summary, it's a bug.

Thanks Solutions4, I have been manually updating the aliases as they are removed, when the devices become managed, it is just a pain, as it is several hundred devices currently, as we are migrating to the cloud platform...
