Hello @RAJESH Kumar

On a Windows system there is nothing really to do to enable quick sync. It should be enabled if the CPU supports quick sync.

If you are running Wowza as a windows service though, check [this](https://www.wowza.com/docs/How-to-enable-hardware-accelerated-transcoding-when-running-as-a-Windows-service) article on how to enable quick sync in that situation.

You can get the CPU specifications that are required for QuickSync [here](https://www.wowza.com/docs/server-specifications-for-intel-quick-sync-acceleration-with-wowza-transcoder).

Regards,

Alex
