Hello friends!

i hope you guys can help me. I have installed UF on windows server but i need to know the following:

Is the installation per session?
What happens if the user who made the installation is removed?
Will it be necessary to have a dedicated user?

Thank for your help

The forwarder is not installed under a user's account. It's available to all users and should remain so if the installing user is removed.
