Installing the Standard TappIn™ Agent

The easiest way to share files on multiple networked computers is to install the Standard TappIn Agent on each computer separately and share the files or folders directly with the agent. The Standard TappIn Agent runs as a service in Windows and starts automatically when the computer is turned on. A user need not be logged into Windows.
