Install the Windows Control

The Windows Control is the component you use to connect with your Agents. This needs to be installed on operators' machines that need to interact with Agents.

A device with the Windows Control installed can be set up individually or deployed across multiple devices using Group Policy or a third-party deployment tool.

If you use Microsoft Intune to manage your Windows deployments, please see Deploying the 247connect Control using Microsoft Intune for more details.
