Additionally, installing the Sender service executable as a service allows Windows to automatically start the Sender service process when the computer is started. You can control Windows Services by accessing the "Services" panel. The "Services" panel can be accessed from the Windows "Control Panel" and selecting "Administrative Tools". Figure 3-9 shows the Administrative Tool for Services. The Remote Graphics Sender is highlighted. The status of the service is "Started", and the service is configured to start up automatically. By right clicking on the Remote Graphics Sender service, the service can be stopped, started, or resumed. Additionally, the properties of the service can be controlled such as the start-up type, and the recovery mode. Installing RGS 56
