We had Windows PCs as consoles for our ICC. All of them were not on the real network, so no regular Windows updates. Once a month, we took a long Ethernet cable and connected each console PC to the real network and updated Windows and then reconnected to the ICC. Not too hard to do. /Tom Kern On 4/29/2022 3:28 AM, Brian Westerman wrote: > There is no real reason that your ICC consoles need to be on the rest of your > network.
