Opening WorldServer Explorer

When you open the WorldServer Explorer desktop application, you need to connect to a WorldServer instance of your choice. You can only connect to instances that run WorldServer 11.5 or higher.

Procedure

  1. On your desktop, select the WorldServer Explorer icon.
    This icon was created by default when you installed WorldServer Explorer on your machine. If you no longer have this icon on your desktop, go to the location where you installed WorldServer Explorer (by default, C:\Program Files\WorldServer Explorer) and double-click WorldServer Explorer.exe.
  2. In the Login dialog box, in the Server URL box, enter the URL of the WorldServer instance to which you want to connect.
    Use the following pattern: <protocol>://<ws-host>/ws-legacy. For example, https://worldservername.com/ws-legacy.
  3. Enter your WorldServer user name and password in the Username and Password boxes.
  4. Optional: Select Remember me if you want WorldServer to remember your login information (server URL, user name, and password) and fill it in automatically the next time you open Explorer.
  5. Select Login.

Results

You have now connected Explorer to your WorldServer instance.
