Nuance Management Center Administrator Guide
About user accounts
You create one user account for each NMC administrator and Dragon user. You create user accounts to
allow NMC administrators to log in to the NMC console, and to allow users to log in to the Nuance
product on their client computers. If you are using single sign-on authentication, you create user
accounts that match each user's Windows login.
After you create user accounts, you then assign them to groups. You must also assign one or more
licenses to each user account to allow them to access different Nuance products.
About dynamic user profiles
Applies to: All non-medical products
When users first log in to the Dragon client with their user account and password, Dragon prompts them
to create a new user profile. Dragon requires users to have one user profile per user account and region.
After creating a user profile, Dragon then uploads the user profile settings, such as region, accent,
preferred vocabulary, and microphone selection, to Nuance Management Center.
A dynamic user profile is a new profile that Dragon creates automatically when a user logs in to Dragon
on a different computer where they have not yet created a user profile. This allows users to dictate on
any Windows computer where Dragon is installed without having to run through the New User wizard on
that computer. Dragon creates the user profile using the settings saved with the original user profile.
Dragon creates dynamic user profiles only when Nuance Management Center/NMS mode is enabled
and users log in to more than one computer. By default, Dragon creates dynamic user profiles in the
%APPDATA%\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking15\Users\[NMSUser_GUID] folder.
There is no manual setup or configuration required for dynamic user profiles.
