Installation methods
There are two methods of installation for Whatfix Studio.
1. User Level Installation
Whatfix Studio is installed for a particular user on a system. For example, if a system has three different user profiles, only the user who installs it gets Studio. This method is best suited for content authors looking to install Studio themselves.
2. System Level Installation
Whatfix Studio is installed for all users in the system. This installation method requires administrator privileges and is best suited for when you need to install Studio on a virtual machine such as Citrix or Azure Virtual Desktop.
Note:
With system-level installation, content authors cannot update Studio within Whatfix Studio. It must be reinstalled using the installer.
In case you face issues with connecting to Whatfix domain, see for more details.
