Run setup.exe from \\isis\shares\ISIS_Experiment_Controls_Public\archive_watcher it will install to c:\Program Files (x86)\STFC ISIS Facility\ISIS Archive Watcher and register as a service

you then need to follow README_POSTINSTALL.rtf in this directory, you will create an archive_watcher.properties with relevant content. For musr this was

watcher.instrument = musr
watcher.fileprefix = musr
watcher.localdir = c:/data
watcher.copylogs = true
watcher.digits = 8
watcher.muonautosave = true
## if you want files pulled to this machine to be pushed elsewhere too, define watcher.pushto
watcher.pushto = file:////ndavms/musrdata
## if you want to override the default \\ndxinstrument\data$ file source define  watcher.sharename 
# watcher.sharename = 

watcher.pushto is not needed in most cases, watcher.muonautosave set to false unless on a muon instrument. watcher.digits is 5 or 8, it is the number of digits in your raw file run number. copyligs is wheretehr to copy the .log/.txt files as well as the raw data file.
