# Update DB24.Api Account

Copy Link

Last updated: March 4, 2026 

## How to Run the DB24.Api Service as a Different Account

💡 **Recommendation**  
We highly recommend running the **DB24.Api Windows service** as a **domain account** for improved control and security.

⚠️ **Important**  
These settings must be reapplied **after each run of the DB24 installer wizard**, as the installer will reset the configuration.

* * *

## Step 1: Locate the DB24.Api Windows Service

1.  Open the **Windows Services** console:
    -   Press **Win + R**
    -   Type `services.msc`
    -   Press **Enter**
2.  Locate **DB24.Api** in the list of services.
3.  Right-click the service and select **Properties**.
