Install the CCMS Output Generator service (Windows)

This procedure describes how to install the Ixiasoft Output Generator service in Windows.

On the machine hosting the CCMS Output Generator, click Start, right-click Command Prompt, and select Run as administrator.
If a confirmation window opens, click Yes.

A command-line interface opens.
Navigate to the CCMS Output Generator bin directory.
For example:
```
cd C:\IxiaSoft\OutputGenerators\prod\bin
```
Enter the name of the installation file and press Enter to run it:
```
InstallOutputGenerator-NT.bat
```
The system installs the CCMS Output Generator and displays a confirmation:
```
c:\Program Files\IxiaSoft\OutputGenerator\bin>InstallOutputGenerator-NT.bat
STATUS | [date] [time] | Ixiasoft Output Generator Service installed.
```
Note: While you could run the InstallOutputGenerator-NT.bat directly from the bin subfolder by right-clicking it and selecting Run as administrator, MadCap Software recommends that you run it from the command-line interface so that you can see the confirmation message (or an error message, if the CCMS Output Generator was not installed correctly).
