Other software

A fresh server usually only has Internet Explorer installed with enhanced security enabled. If you want to use it to download other software, you will need to disable the enhanced security feature. You can skip this step if you have another browser available.

Next, you need to download and install Safewhere Identify and .NET packages:

• Download the latest Safewhere Identify installer from the Safewhere's download page
