Thank you for choosing AceSpy program for monitoring needs. The following post is a user guide for AceSpy for Windows to share a quick reference for users.

After purchasing AceSpy, install AceSpy in your computer. Installing AceSpy is extremely easy. After you order you will receive an email with detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to download the program and start the installation. For maximum stealthiness, we recommend keeping all the default options during installation.

Get Started:

1. Once AceSpy is installed it loads automatically with each computer boot in stealth mode. After you finish installation you will be asked to create your password as shown below.

After you create your password, the password box will pop up. Enter your password and you will be taken to the AceSpy Main Interface as shown below.

Basic Usage Instructions:

Anytime you are within the interface, AceSpy automatically stops monitoring. When you are finished inside the interface, click the "X" at the top right corner. Then, click "Yes" to hide the interface and continue monitoring. Additionally, you can stop or start monitoring activity by clicking the "Start/Stop" button on the Home Screen.

So when you want to view recorded activity, you would open the interface with the hot key sequence. After you are inside, click any of the categories on the left side. Then choose the activity type you wish to view from the category menu. You can change options the same way by clicking an Options category, then choosing an option type in the category menu.

If you ever want to *completely* exit AceSpy and stop monitoring until your computer is rebooted, simply click the "X" at the top right corner. Then select "NO" and AceSpy will shut down completely. It will reload again the next time your computer is rebooted.
