Download Windows Embedded Device Manager 2011

To evaluate Windows Embedded Device Manager, enterprise customers need SC Configuration Manager 2007. Device Manager requires a Server License for each management server and a Client Management License (ML) for each managed operating system environment (OSE).
Microsoft Direct Embedded OEMs may access the agent software in the OEM Preinstallation Kit (OPK) through ECE/MOO (login is required). The Device Manager OPK allows OEMs to ship devices optimized for management.
