  • Read: Users can view features and settings contained in the menu item, but cannot modify them.

    Note
    Note
    Only the default IMSS administrator account can add new administrator accounts. Custom administrator accounts cannot do so even if you assign full permission to the Administration area.
    Custom administrator accounts with full administration rights can only change their own IMSS passwords. If you forget the default administrator account password, contact Trend Micro technical support to reset the password.
