About the MSS Client Launcher — no Java plug-in required

The MSS Client Launcher is a standalone application used to configure Reflection/InfoConnect Desktop sessions from the MSS Administrative Console. The Launcher replaces the Java applet-based tool that requires Oracle’s Java plug-in and Internet Explorer 11.

The MSS Client Launcher must be installed on the administrator’s workstation. Because the MSS Client Launcher does not use the Java plug-in, the MSS administrator can use any supported browser, such as Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, or Microsoft Edge, to configure Reflection/InfoConnect Desktop sessions.

Note: Administrator permissions are required to install the MSS Client Launcher on the desktop machine because the MSS Client Launcher installs to the C:\Program Files directory by default. Once installed, the MSS Client Launcher can be used by all users of that machine. (Log files are created in a per-user writable location.)
