Install desktop components

Installing desktop components.

Follow these steps to install the desktop components on your computer using the Install now option:

1. Start from the Document Manager main page, with the document library that you want to work in opened and accessible.

2. Click Tools > Install Desktop Components.

3. In the Document Manager desktop components window, click on Install now.

4. When prompted, confirm the local default directory where your temporary document files will be stored, or specify another directory for temporary file storage.

5. Enter your server password when prompted. This will store the password and allow the desktop components to access the server.

6. Information about your server and your working document library is captured by the installation wizard and added to the desktop components configuration automatically.

7. When the configuration wizard finishes, you can begin working and using desktop components immediately. See Using desktop components for an example usage scenario.

If you selected the Download installation option instead of Install now, go to Configuring desktop components for instructions on installing desktop components and connecting to the server.
