Installation Process
Once you have downloaded the SMOWLCM installer, you need to run it manually by double-clicking on the file.
In case you can’t find it in your browser, you should look for it in the “Downloads” folder, or wherever you have saved it.
Automatically the installer will run and start the installation process.
Once the installation is complete, a tool window will appear indicating that the installation is complete. When you have read the information you can close the window.
The SMOWLCM system will run automatically when you start the activity to be monitored within your virtual campus and will only record your activity at that moment.
Remember that everything that happens on your computer from the beginning to the end of the activity will be notified to the institution.
