Installing the APPX Connection Manager Command ( appxdsvc)

The APPX Connection Manager ( appxdsvc) command is installed automatically when you install APPX on your system. The installer sets the necessary owner and group permissions for the appxdsvc command. So, there is nothing additional that you need to do to install the appxdsvc command. However, after you install APPX, you will need to run the appxdsvc command to configure and start an instance of the APPX Connection Service before any remote client connections may be established.
