Prerequisites Checklist

Before installing the FenixPyre Windows Client or agent, please ensure that the following prerequisites are met based on the version you are installing.

For Agent Version 6.2.0 and Above:

1. Whitelist FenixPyre: Ensure that FenixPyre is whitelisted by your network’s firewall and antivirus software to prevent any interference with the installation and operation of the agent. Read more

2. Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable (x64) 2019 or Higher: The installation requires the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 (x64) or a newer version. This is essential for ensuring that the necessary runtime components are available for the agent to function properly. If it is not already installed on the machine, you can download it from the official Microsoft website. Read more

3. TLS 1.2 or Above Enabled: FenixPyre requires TLS 1.2 or above to ensure secure communication between the agent and the platform. Verify that TLS 1.2 is enabled in your system settings and network configuration to support secure data transmission. Read more

4. AppData Folder on Local Storage: The AppData folder, which stores important application data, must be located on local storage rather than network storage. This is critical for performance and reliability during the operation of FenixPyre.

5. Install WebView2: FenixPyre uses WebView2 for rendering web content within the application. If WebView2 is not already installed on your system, it must be installed separately. If it's not installed, you will be prompted during the FenixPyre installation process, or you can manually download and install it from the Microsoft website. Read more
