This chapter describes the software installation procedure of the CAP 501.

Overview

Product's current version

CAP 501 installations maintain a single current version of the product on your
computer's system registry. The current version information is the basis for
installations to determine proper install-time actions.

About older product versions

This version of CAP 501 does not detect versions 1.0.0-1 or older that are installed on
the target computer and vice versa. This means that you can install CAP 501 v. 2.0.0
to a drive already containing e.g. CAP 501 version 1.0.0-1 preserving the older
version.

Non-forced installation

A non-forced installation means, that the installation allows you to install any
combination of the available installation options. This is possible only when you
install to a destination containing the same version of CAP 501 as determined by the
current version information.
This kind of installation should come into question, if part of the product obviously
has become corrupt or is missing.

Forced installation

A forced installation means, that the installation does not allow you to select which
portions of the software to install. This happens if CAP 501 has not been installed to
the target computer previously or another version of CAP 501 has been installed to the
currently selected destination. This is to guarantee consistent software installations.

Applications running at install-time

It is recommended to close all unnecessary applications before installing CAP 501.
