Overview
WPM uses worker processes to play back transactions, collect statistics, and return results to the WPM Player. As described in the WPM Getting Started Guide, each WPM worker process on a machine hosting a WPM Player requires its own SEUM-User account because different processes handle different transactions at different times, and may use specific permissions.
The WPM Recorder and WPM Player leverage web browsers (such as Internet Explorer) to play back transactions. To support that functionality, WPM worker processes may modify Windows Registry settings for browser settings, as documented in this article.
Group Policy settings may revert changes made by WPM to browser settings that can stop the WPM Recorder or WPM Player from working. If that occurs, use this information as a reference.
Warning: SolarWinds strongly recommends that you back up your registry before making any edits to your system registry. You should only edit the registry if you are experienced and confident in doing so. Using a registry editor incorrectly can cause serious issues with your operating system, which could require you to reinstall your operating system to correct them. SolarWinds cannot guarantee resolutions to any damage resulting from making registry edits.
