Verify your machine meets these requirements before installing OfficeConnect.

## Required software

All of the following must be installed before running the OfficeConnect installer:

| Software | Notes |
|---|---|
| **WebView2 Runtime** | Required for the OfficeConnect sign-in UI |
| **Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8** | [Download from Microsoft](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/net48) |
| **VSTO 2010** | Visual Studio Tools for Office runtime |
| **Workday Event Log Components** | Installed by the OfficeConnect setup wizard if you have admin rights |

> **Tip:** If you have administrator rights on your machine, the per-user installer handles prerequisites automatically. If you don't, ask your IT team to install these before you run OfficeConnect setup.
