How do I specify a non-administrator's Access Rights in LogMeIn?

How do I specify a non-administrator's Access Rights in LogMeIn? Once connected to the target computer (the computer you want to remotely access) as an administrator:

In the LogMeIn Free/Pro interface go to Preferences > Security settings > Access Control;

or if you use LogMeIn IT Reach, go to Security > Access Control;

Then click on Add, then List Users and Groups, find the user account that you wish to add, specify the rights in the right hand list (the options will explain themselves if you move your mouse over the checkboxes).

Once a user has been added with at least login rights, they will be able to access this LogMeIn computer.

When you setup users in Access Control, you can give them full control or set their specific permissions. If you just give them specific permissions, then you can leave the Configure section unchecked and they will not be able to change any settings in Preferences.
