Hamachi:Preferences: System
From LogMeInWiki
Running
Options for how Hamachi runs as a program
Options
- 'Show Hamachi window when I log in to Windows', when checked, will display the graphical interface when you log on to Windows.
- 'Run Hamachi as a system service' displays if you are running Hamachi in Application mode. It will be disabled if you are running Hamachi Basic, as the system service feature is for Hamachi:Hamachi Premium.
- Hamachi:Manage Hamachi system service is displayed if you are running in service mode. You can revert to application mode, and change service permissions settings here.
Maintenance
Settings for program maintenance.
Options
- 'Automatically update Hamachi' allows for Hamachi to automatically download and install new version updates. This is disabled when running as a system service.
- Hamachi:Set Master Password allows you to set/reset a password associated with your Hamachi account/IP.
- 'Open Configuration Folder' allows you to open the %appdata% folder where the current Hamachi settings are stored.
Troubleshooting
- 'Do not disable the network adapter on exit' keeps the adapter running even if Hamachi isn't. Useful for running Hamachi in application mode under a non-administrator user account.
- 'Do not use Universal Plug and Play' allows you to disable Hamachi from trying to auto-configure your router. If this is checked, you will most likely need to configure the NAT settings in Hamachi:Detailed Configuration.
