Download Installer
Download https://cdn.monitorurs.com/MonitorUrsPCService-Win-x64.zip
Extract File
Right-click the .zip > Properties > check "Unblock" if shown, then Extract All... to a permanent location, for example: C:\Program Files\MonitorUrs\ (Do NOT extract to Downloads or the Desktop — the service runs from wherever the exe lives.)
Create a server item on MonitorUrs.com
1. Login to your MonitorUrs.com account, go to "Servers", and click "+ Create New Server" button at top.
2. Enter a name for this server, select contacts and click "Save".
3. In the list of servers, click the Edit () button for the server you just created, and copy the "Server Code" to your clipboard. You will need this code in the next step.
Open Terminal
Open Command Prompt or PowerShell in that folder.
Run Once With Activation Code
Run the following command, replacing YOUR-CODE with the Server Code you copied in step 3.
MonitorUrsPCService.exe YOUR-CODE
(Wait for it to print "Server ID Location..." then press a key to exit)

MonitorUrsPCService.exe install
