Did you ever be connected with this computer to your APM ?

 

Because when you do client-side checks, you need to install a plugin except if you have "Component Installer Package for Windows" installed.

 

If never connected to APM before, there's 2 cases :

 

  • "Component Installer Package for Windows" not installed : You have connect you with a user with privileges to install it.

     

  • "Component Installer Package for Windows" installed : Check where it's blocking access. Before or after client-side checks ?
