Because Devolutions Server is in fact a web application, the management interface is provided by the Devolutions Server Console, which you can download from our download page.
Consult the list of web server prerequisites for the Devolutions Server Console.
The Devolutions Server Console manages the IIS metabase. It must be started with elevated privileges when it needs to be used. Elevated privileges are granted when you use Run as administrator to launch the application. You can modify the shortcut to always start it in this manner.
