The application that does the actual importing of audio, dcsTools Audio Import Service, runs as a Windows service and can be started and stopped from the user application, dcsTools Audio Import Manager. If you are unable to start or stop dcsTools Audio Import Service, the reason is that, more than likely, the logged-on user doesn't have sufficient user privileges to do so.
Near the end of the initial installation of dcsTools Audio Importer, you are offered that option to launch the user-access utility, an application that provides the means to extend the needed privileges to one or more users or user groups. It is recommended you do this at installation, but if you wish to defer to a later time, you can access this utility from the programs menu. Locate the dcsTools Audio Importer menu folder, expand it, and select the "Service Access Rights Utility" menu item.
