How do I use Self Service+ to install software on my UNCW-owned Mac computer?

Answer

All faculty and staff have the ability to access and use Software Center or Self Service+ on a UNCW-owned computer.

*Please note: If your Windows computer has not been on the UNCW network for an extended period of time (either on-campus or via VPN), you may need to connect before it displays all applications available on Software Center. After connecting, applications may take a few hours to populate.

Software Center for Windows:

Click the Windows Start Button.
Locate and choose the "Software Center" tile on the start menu.
If you do not see the "Software Center" tile, type "Software Center" in the search bar.
Software Center will now launch.
Click on the application you would like to install.
Select "Install."
