Using ApexSQL Log Project dialog:

1. Open ApexSQL Log after the update
2. Click New when the Session dialog opens
3. Select the server instance and enter credentials for the login with SQL Server sysadmin role
4. Accept to install the Server-side components
5. After the Server-side components are successfully installed, the data processing will start
