Curtain MonGuard system requirements

Requirements are listed separately for the admin server, the Windows client and the macOS client, based on the supplier’s published system requirements. Current support is shown apart from legacy compatibility data.

Installer name: Curtain Lite

During installation you will see Curtain Lite Admin (the admin server) and Curtain Lite Client (the client). The Curtain Lite package contains the Curtain MonGuard screen watermark features and also Curtain LogTrace features, which is why documents and installer screens use the Curtain Lite name.

  • CPU: 1.6 GHz or faster, dual-core; 2 GHz or above recommended
  • Memory: 2 GB RAM

  • This table reproduces compatibility data from the supplier’s system requirements document. Some of these systems are no longer supported by Microsoft; current support is listed in the section above.
  • “—” means the document does not list that combination.
  • Note: the supplier document marks Windows Server 2008 R2 32-bit as supported, but Microsoft released Windows Server 2008 R2 in 64-bit editions only. We show this cell as “Not applicable” until the supplier verifies it.
