Pre-Installation considerations

Operating system considerations

The Message Manager Setup program automatically tailors Message Manager to
work with the operating system installed on a PC. Operating system
considerations are:
Message Manager Release 4.5 runs as a 32-bit application on Windows
2000, Windows 95 and Windows NT (NT version 3.51 requires Service
Pack 5)
Message Manager Release 4.5 cannot run on Windows 3.1, 3.11, or NT
3.51 without Service Pack 5. Obtain Message Manager Release 4.3. to run
Message Manager on a 6-bit system.
Reinstall Message Manager when changing operating systems. Message
Manager must be installed separately for each operating system if the PC
runs multiple operating systems (such as Windows NT and Windows 95).

Upgrade considerations

If upgrading from an earlier release of Message Manager to Release 4.5, either
replace the existing version of Message Manager or keep 2 versions of Message
Manager installed on the same PC.
Before installation
Make a backup copy of the following directories and contents:
Workbench (Workbnch)
Personal Folders (default names are PF1, PF2, PF3, PF4, and PF5)
Address Book (PBOOK.MDB)
During installation
Complete the following:
1. Close all Windows programs, including the current version of Message
Manager.
2. To save a copy of the current Message Manager software, select a new
directory name and program group when installing Release 4.5.
3. Install (or reinstall) the fax software that corresponds with the Message
Manager release for faxing after installing the basic software.
NOTE:
Installing Message Manager "basic" software removes the fax print
drivers from the computer. In addition, there can be 2 releases of
Message Manager installed, but only 1 set of fax print drivers.
