Using the security system configuration wizard

The security system configuration wizard helps you through the steps of configuring the project security system.

1. Start the wizard.
   • If you are configuring the security system for the first time, then the wizard will start automatically when you do one of the following:
     • On the Project tab of the ribbon, in the Security tab, click Configure; or
     • In the Global tab of the Project Explorer, right-click Security and then click Settings on the shortcut menu.
     Note: After the first time, doing one of these will open the Security System dialog instead.
   • If you have already configured the security system, click Configure on the ribbon to open the Security System dialog and then click Run Wizard.
   The first page of the wizard is displayed.
