Access Restriction |
This page provides information about the local Windows groups the installer will create to manage security (see the section Windows User Groups and Security Roles in the topic Installation Information). Note: This page will only appear if you are installing Plant SCADA on a clean computer (one that has not hosted an earlier version).

A dialog will let you know that the group membership changes will not occur until after a restart. |
