Windchill Office Worker Daemon (OFF) does NOT auto‑start.

Is it supposed to auto-start since it's kind of OS service?

Hi Experts,

                  For current Office Worker, MS Office Application is invoked when publishing, since Windows System level and Office Application limitations, for some environment, Office Worker cannot work properly when worker daemon is running as service even if creating Desktop folder and switching logon user..., Office Worker works only when workerdaemon.exe is launched in foreground

                   --- As documented from Microsoft, Office Applications are not recommended to run in Service Mode --- Considerations for server-side Automation of Office | Microsoft Support

 
          There will be some incontinence when running workerdaemon.exe in foreground:

                   1. Once Worker machine is restarted, administrator need to log in Worker Machine and start workerdaemon.exe manually

                   2. If configuring auto-logon as recommended in Article CS93677, IT department may have concerns about system Security

 
            Is it possible to develop an alternative solution for Office Worker in future, which can avoid above limitations and incontinences
