Task 1: Install Right Click Tools Console Extension

To get you up and running with Right Click Tools Enterprise as quickly as possible, you'll first install the Right Click Tools Console Extension (aka Right Click Tools in Standalone mode). The tools will be available in ConfigMgr—for users with Local Administrator permissions on target devices—while the prerequisites and permissions for other Recast components and products are being put in place.

Run the Right Click Tools Installer

Make sure your Configuration Manager console is closed before opening the installer.

To install Right Click Tools:

1. Double-click the .msi file to open the installer you downloaded from the Recast Portal. Click Next.

2. Choose Right Click Tools Enterprise Standalone as the installation type and click Next.


3. Enter your Recast Portal Email address and Password.

4. Click Download License.

The license information will appear in the right pane if the retrieval was successful. 

If the computer with your Configuration Manager console does not have internet access, you can click Browse for License to search the filesystem for a license file exported from the Recast Portal.

5. Click Install.

6. When the installation completes, click Finish to close the installer.

Task 1A (Optional): Set Up Configuration Manager for Right Click Tools

When Right Click Tools is run in Standalone mode, some actions will not work without Remote Registry or Remote WMI enabled. We recommend that you bypass the need to enable Remote Registry and Remote WMI by deploying and using Recast Agents on your devices to elevate permissions.

If, however, the installation and configuration of your Recast Management Server isn't planned for the short term and you want access to all the Right Click Tools in Standalone mode, you can start the Remote Registry service, create firewall rules for Remote Registry, Remote WMI, and ICMP Echo, and configure the Interactive Command Prompt.
