Thank you very much

1.after entering the server ip and the key how do i continue to connect them and make sure they are connected?

The agent runs as a service, and will keep the agent connected to the hub as long as its running on the client.

2. how do i activate the program itself on the windows 10 agent?

The installer will set it up as a windows service and start it automatically.

3.is there gui option for the agent?

Theres no GUI on the agent, the agent just collects data and sends it to the hub for analysis and optionally action. The GUI runs on the hub.
