 **Tip:** When running Mezzmo server as a Windows service, if you are having the issue where Mezzmo server is not listing your files on your devices or not being able to access your files on a NAS or external computer, then the reason will most likely be due to the Windows Local System account not having access rights to your files.  To fix this, you should change the Windows account that the Mezzmo server Windows service is running under.  Go to Windows Services window in Control Panel.  Right-click on the Mezzmo service and click Properties.  On the Properties dialog, adjust the Log On settings to use the same Windows user account that Mezzmo (Windows) app is running under.
+**Tip:** You may need to add the Logon as a service permission to your account.
+To add "Log on as a service" permissions:
+  - Run Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy
+  - Select  Local Policies > User Rights Assignment > Log on as a service
+  - Click Add User or Group, and then add the appropriate account to the list of accounts that possess the Log on as a service right.
