ClickShare is more than clicking and sharing. Last week, we have started a series explaining a number of 'hidden features' of ClickShare that will even enhance the experience. Especially interesting for new users, is the automatic activation of the ClickShare Button.



When developing ClickShare, one of the key objectives was to make it a zero footprint application on your laptop. In other words, there should be no driver to install to make it work. However, when the autorun mode of your computer (which automatically runs the program on a USB drive at the moment it is inserted) is switched off, this means you manually need to activate the Button by launching the client. This works well, but if you are a frequent ClickShare user, it's a bit of a tedious process that can easily be avoided by actually installing the ClickShare launcher on your pc. 

To do this, you just need to download the launcher from our website - either following the shortcut on the Button's USB drive, or by clicking here. From then on, this small application will detect when a ClickShare Button is inserted and will automatically launch. All you need to do is connect, click and share. 

If you have never needed to launch the application manually, it's not because you have some sort of magical pc - all you have is a clever IT department. Indeed, facility managers can choose to roll this system out for all employees using an MSI installer.here for detailed instructions.
