Install and remove ActiveX controls

Even though you have already installed an ActiveX control on your computer, you must also make it known to the InTouch HMI by installing it to WindowMaker.

When you remove an ActiveX control from WindowMaker, it is not deleted from your computer. It is simply removed from memory and does not function.

Note: To install or remove ActiveX controls, you must have administrator privileges and run WindowMaker with administrative rights.
