The installation requires .NET. See Getting Help.

The stand-alone computer or the server components on distributed systems must that have the FactoryStudio installed and licensed.

The section Installing FactoryStudio describes the standard way to install and license FactoryStudio.

When you are not using components that require the setup of the Windows Registry, such as the OPC components, you also just copy the product files without running any installation (that is very useful to embed the software on devices), removing project examples or engineering components, adding custom protocols.

On distributed systems, the client computers don’t require a license, they just need to be allowed to connect with the server based on number of runtime users enabled on the server. For more information on the client setup, see Remote Client Users Setup.

If the system will have remote users, the TWebServer or IIS must be installed and running on the server computer.
