Downloading the software for the first time for personal use. What is the difference between the “default installation” and “Install and set up unattended access to this device”?

Hello @ssall,

I am super glad you asked this question, as it is an important difference to know about. 🤓

Installing and setting up unattended access to the device will allow you to connect to it without any interactions from the remote computer. The best example to imagine this is when you want to connect to a computer that is in the middle of an inaccessible island.

In this scenario, you will need to set up unattended access in order to connect to it.

You will find how to set it up here:

The default installation will not invite you to set this functionality during the installation - however - you will be able to do it manually after you are done with installation.

Please let me know if this has helped you! 🍀
