To install the iPlato toolbar please head to the following webpage - https://download.iplato.com/
If you're having issues or if your IT team need more information please see the technical requirements that are necessary:
Windows administrator rights
Windows Administrator rights are not explicitly required to install the iPlato Toolbar client and therefore a regular user should be able to install it on their own. However this will be very dependent on the ICB level IT restrictions.
If all installation of applications is blocked for non-administrator users, the local IT Support team will be required to provide assistance during installation or will need to whitelist the iPlato Toolbar application.
Please Note: Please ensure that you allow access to Windows Defensive Firewall. If necessary, contact your IT support to help do this.
Installation and folder read/write access
The iPlato Toolbar uses the OneClick install solution from Microsoft.
Read/write access is required to these folders:
C:\Users\Username\
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\
Where access to the above folders are blocked, myGP Buddy may be able to install, but would not be permitted to function.
Anti-virus
The iPlato Toolbar could get blocked by anti-virus software. We advise that the Toolbar is whitelisted on any ICB/CSU managed anti-virus solutions.
We work with the major anti-virus suppliers to verify the toolbar, which should reduce anti-virus software from blocking or generating errors when the toolbar is run.
Firewall requirements
Port 443 (HTTPS) is open
No restrictions to the address:
Whitelist access to the following IP addresses:
212.237.215.25
3.8.158.27
Firewall solutions should not block the myGP Buddy application.
