Step 1: Prepare your Hardware's OS

Installing Nx Witness on devices is simple and fast with the Nx Witness Windows installers. Make sure you are using a supported version of Windows before you begin the installation process below.

Step 2: Download the Nx Witness VMS Windows Installation Package

The latest released versions of Nx Witness VMS are available in two locations:

• My Nx - a customer/user portal with tools, downloads, the Works with Nx marketplace, and more. Note: MyNX account sign up/sign is required. 
• Nx Cloud - does not require signing up and was designed for existing users or new users who have been added to an existing System.

When downloading, we recommend choosing the Bundle Installer (Desktop Client + Server) - as it can be used to install one or both components for Windows.

   • Options: The Nx Witness bundle installer lets you choose to install both Nx Desktop and Nx Server components, or either individually. 
4. When the installation is complete, you can close the installer or press Launch to open Nx Desktop.
