Utilize 7-Zip or an alternate file extraction tool to unzip the Workflow Studio ZIP file directly into the root of your chosen drive (e.g., C:\) to manage long file names effectively. The EmpowerID team recommends this approach to handle long file names effectively. Afterward, you have the option to relocate the files to a directory of your preference.
Open Windows PowerShell in Admin mode and navigate to the folder where you downloaded the PowerShell scripts.
Run the Install-WorkflowStudio_EID-Release.ps1 script.
During the installation process, when requested to designate the EmpowerID Install Directory, enter the path leading to the primary folder that will contain the EmpowerID application. If, for example, the intended location of EmpowerID is
C:\TheDotNetFactory\EmpowerID, thenC:\TheDotNetFactoryshould be specified as the Install directory.
You should see that Workflow Studio has been successfully installed. You can close PowerShell.
Navigate to the programs folder and find the file named "EmpowerID.BPM.Studio.exe.” Perform a right-click on this file, and from the dropdown menu, choose ‘Properties.’ This will open a new window where you should select the 'Compatibility' tab. In this tab, look for the option that says "Run this program as an administrator" and check the box next to it to enable this setting. To finalize and apply these changes, click 'OK'.
Create a shortcut for the exe as needed.
Open Workflow Studio.
If prompted, enter the Web URL for your EmpowerID environment and click OK.
Your browser will open and direct you to the EmpowerID login page for your organization.
