The latest versions of Windows 10 and Windows Server 2019 have completely eradicated Interactive Services leaving services unable ot be interacted with beyond the simple Start, Stop, and Restart options provided by the Services control dialog. Effectively, all services are now headless. This change may be leaving developers and administrators wonder: how do i access the 4D Server Administration Window?
The answer simple - use 4D Client.
The 4D Client application has access to the 4D Server Administration Window via the OPEN ADMINISTRATION WINDOW command. Keep in mind that only the Designer and Administrator have access, if the command is executed by any other user an error is generated.
