Installing or Upgrading

This section contains instructions for installing ColdFusion Studio.
Do not install an earlier version of ColdFusion Studio over a later version; however,
later versions are backward-compatible with earlier versions. If both this version and
a previous version are installed on your machine, you can run either version, but the
earlier version will reflect changes made in the current version to searching, source
control and projects, debugging, FTP, RDS, and validation.
ColdFusion Studio records any errors that are encountered during installation to a
.log file in the root directory. Please be ready to send this file to Technical Support if
you need help with installation.
To install:
1 Close all open applications and insert the ColdFusion Studio CD-ROM.
2 When the opening screen displays, click Install.
3 Follow the instructions in the Installation Wizard.
4 Once the program files are copied to your system, select the option to restart your
machine and click Finish to complete the installation.
The installation is completed.
To upgrade:
1 Do not uninstall the previous version before installing the current version.
2 Do not delete the UserData and AutoBackup folder. This allows you to import
your customizations into the current version and to files created by the backup
feature.
3 Close all open applications and insert the ColdFusion Studio CD-ROM.
4 When the opening screen displays, click Install.
