BRP recommends using the PC for BUDS2, BossWeb and other BRP usages only. Diagnostic tools from
other powersport vendors, some computer security suites and some remote administration software have
occasionally interfered with the correct operation of BUDS2.
Computer administrator privileges are required for BUDS2 installation, as well as for module update
operations using a USB-to-USB cable connection.
To install BUDS2, execute the installation program called 'BUDS2_Setup.exe'. If you are not logged-in as
Windows administrator, please run the installation program as Windows administrator. To do this, right-click
on the installer and click on Run as administrator. If Windows opens a security warning, accept it by clicking
on 'Run'. If you want to cancel the installation process, press the 'Cancel' button or the 'X' on the top right
of the window at any point of the installation.
