Advanced Installation settings:

Here you can adjust details of your STARR installation, e.g. to prepare STARR for a manual installation.

STARR log file: This is the log file created during the logging process. It can be plain ASCII text (i.e. viewable with any text editor) or a totally scrambled text if you choose to encrypt it (-> security settings). You can enter a path directly or use the BROWSE button. If you transfer a STARR log file from another PC to your administrator PC, you need to load it into the STARR Commander as a STARR log file in order to decrypt and display it (see also the Email section). 

Path names: The invisible activity monitoring module ("Logging engine") consists of an executable and a so-called dynamic link library which contains program code used by STARR. You are totally free to rename both files. You could rename "wsys.exe" to "nice.day" and "wsys.dll" to "sunshine.hot" to hide them even from someone who might know the STARR filenames themselves. Once you have changed the names of these two files and / or their directory, all you have to do is change two path names in the STARR Commander.

Tip: Renaming starrcmd.exe: The file starrcmd.exe (the STARR Commander) is copied to your Windows directory (typically c:\Windows or c:\WinNT). You can easily rename this file: Example: You rename the file to GoodMorning.exe. Then you need to type "GoodMorning" into the RUN menu in order to start the STARR Commander.

Auto-Name: STARR can automatically name the log file, the email attachment (STARR report) and the email subject individually. This helps you to automatically sort and group your reports correctly. The currently available tags are:

<PC> Adds PC name

<USER> Adds user name. If you insert this tag in the log file name, STARR creates separate log files for each user !

<DATE> Adds the start-up date to the log file name. For the email attachment, the date when the report is emailed is added.

<TIME> Adds the start-up time to the log file name. For the email attachment, the time when the report is emailed is added.

By default, all four tags are added to the email attachment file name.
