This information can be retrieved via the `about` page in the Windows settings. First click on the start menu to open up the settings window ![Start menu](https://1838184739-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9hsLHAoFyYqgfdRqBE%2F-M6ZKr-O-wxeBud_da9W%2F-M6ZLlxKcGV2MDn3x5cD%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=aa7cc429-e36c-478e-9caf-c1d6e0e35ea8) When the setting window appears you can continue to the System page. ![Windows settings overview](https://1838184739-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9hsLHAoFyYqgfdRqBE%2F-M6ZKr-O-wxeBud_da9W%2F-M6ZLyq8BgM7htm2p9Tk%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=54040e1b-3b4c-4c66-90d7-05c6fdf16585) When on the System page you can view the About page and scroll down to view the Windows specifications. ![Windows specifications](https://1838184739-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9hsLHAoFyYqgfdRqBE%2F-M6ZKr-O-wxeBud_da9W%2F-M6ZLbPqTDhJq2Z1e1jS%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=b93db0cc-fe08-4325-945a-e732f966ca30) {% hint style="info" %} If your windows specification displays Windows 10 Home you also need to follow [step 3](#3-windows-10-home) {% endhint %} ## 2. Execute the Windows 10 support script When you are running Windows 10 and experiencing issues where the Trust1Connector is not working properly you can execute the following script to update the Trust1Connector settings. This script will make sure the Trust1Connector will start up correctly when the computer has booted up. To execute the script you need to download it and double click it to start. After executing a reboot is required to complete the process. {% file src="" %} Trust1Connector support script {% endfile %} {% hint style="info" %} This script needs elevated rights (administrator rights) to be executed.
{% endhint %} ![User Account Control to execute the script with Administrator rights (elevated rights)](https://1838184739-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9hsLHAoFyYqgfdRqBE%2F-M6ZQBDcKsrD-lgixCEM%2F-M6ZQVeczH0iuiTaZX2e%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=22aa4dc8-7ed0-41b7-bcfb-63c895024957) The script will display various dialog boxes with information. These boxes hold information about what has been added/updated
Info box which states the service will be run at each boot procedure
The following messages can appear: * Trust1Connector\_Service script enabled to run at startup * Trust1Connector\_Agent script enabled to run at startup * Trust1Connector\_Service startup path added to startup programs * Trust1Connector\_Agent startup path added to startup programs * The service GCL\_Service is already started * {{Date}} StartService GCL\_Service -1 Running OK * Please restart the computer to complete the setup {% hint style="warning" %} If you receive a different message from the ones above please contact support with the message details. {% endhint %} At the end of the script it will request a manual reboot. This is required to save the settings and to validate if this has fixed your issues. For the Trust1Connector to work properly you need 2 processes running ![](https://1838184739-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9hsLHAoFyYqgfdRqBE%2F-M9bOf0MO5UbkyLnYev2%2F-M9bPGQagMxgccf8ga6T%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=e5ea92cf-ca8f-4caa-bcaf-3b64f86e3bc8) Also check if the Trust1Connector is added as a startup program, and is enabled. The required startup programs can be seen below; ![](https://1838184739-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9hsLHAoFyYqgfdRqBE%2F-M9bOf0MO5UbkyLnYev2%2F-M9bPWL6snvxdSTgDfx_%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=5883d4b6-3444-404c-ac37-4ef7b8b9f6b6) If you see multiple entries of the same but the Trust1Connector is still not working this could indicate in a corrupt/bloated Windows registry. Make sure that the following registry keys are existent and that they are active in the task manager; ![](https://1838184739-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9hsLHAoFyYqgfdRqBE%2F-M9bOf0MO5UbkyLnYev2%2F-M9bS-wOSLE3cFmndXG_%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=cb4c42d4-e677-4e93-bd12-e6c4e957575e) ## 3. Windows 10 Home {% hint style="warning" %} This step is only required when you'r Windows specification displays Windows 10 Home {% endhint %} When you're running a Windows 10 home edition and are experiencing issues regarding the reader not being found, please disconnect the reader completely and connect it again.
