Downloading the Desktop Connector
Note: The Desktop Connector installation is linked to your individual Windows login profile on the PC and not all users. If you use different PCs within the practice you’ll need to install the Desktop Connector on each PC the first time you login. The reason for the installation being linked to a users profile rather than shared for all users is that no local admin rights are needed to install or upgrade the Desktop Connector.
Note: Once the Desktop Connector is installed this will automatically start in the system tray and a Skyline login box will open when you log into Windows
Installation of the Desktop Connector will take less than 10 seconds to run
