Do you always use Built-in Administrator account to install and configure Datacap machines?

  • 1.  Do you always use Built-in Administrator account to install and configure Datacap machines?

    Hi,

    We've always used Windows OS Administrator account to install and configure Datacap including encryption key creation.

    Do you regularly use non-Administrator account for installation?

    According to manual, an installation account can be any other account with the right privileges.

    If so, do you regularly change password for that installation account afterword and does Datacap work without any repercussion?

    We usually do not change password for Administrator after installation and I wonder if the password of the installation account may be used in encryption key use.

    Installation instructions for the Datacap server include ensuring that an account with administrator privileges is granted Full Control access to all of the machines on which the Datacap components are being installed.
