Deactivate and reactivate an agent

Deactivating an agent and activating it again is the usual fix for errors such as Agent: Bad. You can do it directly from the app or with a script; choose the option that works best for you.

1
From the app

Follow the step-by-step guide Deactivate and activate an agent (Windows App).

With a script

Open a command prompt (batch) as administrator and run these steps:

1Deactivate the agent:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Invarosoft Pty Ltd\itsp.windows\bin"
itsp.windows.service.exe deactivate
2Wait 45 seconds.
 
3Activate the agent again, replacing ACTIVATION_CODE with the client's code:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Invarosoft Pty Ltd\itsp.windows\bin"
itsp.windows.service.exe activate ACTIVATION_CODE

You'll find each client's activation code in the Invarosoft Portal under Clients → Clients. For details, see Find the Client List: Obtain an activation code.
