Thank you for the feedback! Strategically speaking, our strategy for management of Windows Server and the successor to in-box MMC management tools (such as Server Manager) is Windows Admin Center (WAC). So Server Manager is in a deprecated bug fixing mode, and all new innovation is in WAC. With that context I encourage you to try out WAC and would love your thoughts on the experience with WAC.

Thanks!

    Hi EldenChristensen I am a fiery user and advocate of WAC since one of the first releases and have about 50 items in uservoice.

    I hope that this fixing the context menu could be in reach. WAC has no plugin to (remotely) manage printing roles at all.

     

    Thanks for giving it another thought. DSAC has also seen a bugfix that I have discussed with members of Microsoft and I am very happy about this, as this issue in DSAC also was part since Server 2012.
