What’s New in N-central 2026.1
This release delivers focused improvements across usability, compliance, and platform experience, helping IT teams manage their environments more efficiently and with greater confidence. With enhancements to navigation, support workflows, and compliance readiness, N-central 2026.1 continues to simplify day-to-day operations while maintaining the stability teams rely on.
Highlights include:
N-sight now makes it easier for partners to manage access, reduce friction for technicians, and keep user permissions aligned with their identity policies.
With support for Microsoft Entra ID through N-able Login, partners can extend their existing single sign-on and identity management standards to N-sight. This helps ensure the right people have access at the right time, without adding manual overhead, while creating a more consistent sign-in experience across N-sight, other N-able products, and the broader tools partners already rely on.
N-sight supports Microsoft Entra ID as an authentication provider through N-able Login, allowing partners to configure and manage identity access directly within N-sight.

These include a refreshed Windows System Tray icon, improved Windows performance monitoring defaults, a new Windows RC Agent, and confirmation that Take Control is FIPS 140‑3 compliant.
Improved Windows System Tray icon
Requires Windows RC Agent 10.15.2
Based on partner feedback, the Windows System Tray icon has been updated to improve visibility on newer operating systems, particularly Windows 11, where lighter backgrounds made the previous icon harder to see.
The refreshed icon is designed to be clearly visible in both light and dark mode and is supported across all currently supported Windows operating systems.
Improvements to the Performance Monitoring Checks
Requires Windows 10.15.2, Agent
The new Windows RC Agent updates the default threshold settings for Performance Monitoring Checks to better reflect modern system capacity and performance expectations. The result is fewer unnecessary alerts triggered by low thresholds that no longer align with today’s hardware profiles.
As part of this update:
These changes help reduce alert noise while preserving meaningful visibility into system performance.
Take Control FIPS 140-3 Compliance
Take Control is confirmed to be compliant with FIPS 140‑3, supporting partners operating in environments with stricter security and compliance requirements.
