How to activate the Data Wizard via the Foxtrot Administrator.
Instructions
Begin by verifying your permissions level to the Foxtrot Suite folder; typically “C:Program Files (x86)Foxtrot Suite” for 64-bit machines, or “C:Program FilesFoxtrot Suite” for 32-bit machines. We recommend that all users have read, write, and modify permissions to the respective directory. You may need a system administrator to grant you these permissions if they do not yet exist. If you do not have the appropriate permissions, the changes we are about to make will not save.
