3CX install to C rather than local profile

[timbo343]

We are looking to move to 3CX for our phone system and i've been testing the 3CX Windows Client. It turns out it installs as a MSIX to the user's local profile.

 

Is there a way to get the Windows Client to install to the C drive of the machine rather than to the Local Profile of a user.

We use the web client rather than the installed version, is that an option?

That is an option though having the app would be better, I can't imagine staff being happy if they accidentally close the browser and it kills the call.

I thought the Windows client has been discontinuted and push for web browser version?

My tech found this article which installs the PWA to the user session - https://www.3cx.com/docs/pwa-terminal-server-deployment/ - so we have set this up to point to computers rather than users.

Just an update to this, we had to allow https://client.wns.windows.com/ as the users were being shown as Not Registered. Apparently it's to do with the notifications. Browser based notifications need to be enabled for your domain and if like us you have blocked browser based notifications via group policy then the PWA will show the user as Not Registered.
