To Perform a Manual Installation
-
Download all relevant Viz Mosart Installation Files to the preferred location. The default location is C:\Mosart\Installers. You are advised to make a sub-directory for the installers for a particular version/build containing all the MSI installer-files and any other supplemental files. This directory should be named using the Release.Version.Patch.Build naming convention, for example: C:\Mosart\Installers\3.4.5.12345 for Viz Mosart 3.4.5 build 12345.
-
If you are upgrading from an earlier Viz Mosart version it is recommended to take a backup of your current installation settings before you start the installation of the new version. See Viz Mosart Backup below.
-
Double-click an MSI installation file, and follow the prompts to complete installation.
-
Repeat the above step for all relevant installation files.
-
You need to start a set of Windows services to make Viz Mosart run properly. These are automatically started when the computer is started.
-
The safest is to reboot the computer to verify that the automatic start of the services is working.
