Configuring the Worker Daemon as a Windows Service

Installing the Adapters > Running Worker Daemon > Configuring the Worker Daemon as a Windows Service

The Worker Daemon is automatically installed on a Windows machine when installing any adapter from the Creo View MCAD Adapters media. It can also be configured to start automatically when the Windows worker machine is booted by checking the Configure Worker Daemon as a Windows Service installer option.

If you selected Configure Worker Daemon as a Windows Service during the installation of an adapter from the Creo View MCAD Adapters media, then Step 1 is not necessary. Proceed to Step 2 to ensure that the service is available.

1. Open a Command Prompt window and navigate to the creo_view_adapters\x86e_win64\obj\ directory.

◦ At the prompt, enter the following command to install the GS Worker Daemon as a Windows service.

workerdaemon -install

2. Open the Services dialog box, which now lists a "GS Worker Daemon" service. Start the Worker Daemon to begin running it as a service.
