3 - How to Install

Save the file to your server*. Once the file is downloaded, simply double-click to execute the file, and it will upgrade your installation.

* Choose somewhere where it can remain (which means your Desktop may not be the most convenient place).

Don't move, rename or delete the file once you have run it, as it will be referenced again (to do a transparent uninstall) when you perform an upgrade next time.

There is no need to manually stop services or anything - just double-click the file that you saved.

Then, follow any dialog prompts from the installer.

There will be a long pause after you execute the file while the upgrader closes your running service and reviews your current settings.

The upgrade process will then start automatically.
