Technics:CoPlanner Win-Client
As soon as Client directory was copied onto the computer, which should act as Win-Client, the Client is installed. You only have to adopt file ClientConfig.xml onto your system. This file is located in execution-directory of the Client.
ClientConfig.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16" standalone="yes"?>

Installation of Windows-Client by ClickOnce
It's possible to intall the CoPlanner Client by ClickOnce via Webserver (Microsoft Internet Information Services) or via deploying the required files. The big advantage of the ClickOnce installation is that after you have installed it once, changes can be rolled out automatically to the other clients. Principally deploying the required files is much easier because no webserver has to be configured.
Virus scanner, Firewalls, etc……
Virus scanner, Firewalls and diverse other tools can affect attitude of CoPlanner. Generally folder of installation of CoPlanner should be excluded in a virus scanner. Firewalls have to be configured that they are not able to affect transmission of CoPlanner.
For an accurate action of system please check at regular intervals the eventlog, because CoPlanner writes error messages in the event log as well.
Example of an error message because of a virus scanner:
