To do this:

1. Install Enterprise Manager.
2. Create a local user without administrative privileges.

3. Reserve the URL for the user you just created by running the following commands:

   netsh http add urlacl url=https://+:443/AttunityEnterpriseManager user=DOMAIN\youruser

   netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:80/AttunityEnterpriseManager user=DOMAIN\youruser

4. Grant the new user the Full control permission for the Enterprise Manager data folder (<EM_INSTALL_DIR>\data).
5. Open the Local Security Policy window and select Local Policies>User Rights Assignment. Then grant the Log on as a service policy to the new user.
6. Stop the Enterprise Manager service.

7. In the Log On tab of the Enterprise Manager service properties, select This account and specify the new user name in the following format:

   .\NewUser

8. Save your changes.
9. Start the Enterprise Manager service.
