1.2 Software Installation & Setup

For information on system Requirements refer to the Appendix.

Warning! To install Tinytag Explorer, you will need to have Windows Administrator Access
rights on the server or computer you are using.

• Place the Tinytag Explorer CD into the CD drive of your PC. The Tinytag Explorer Installer

will run automatically after a few seconds and present you with a Welcome screen. If Tinytag

Explorer Installer does not run automatically, open Windows Explorer, navigate to your CD

drive and double-click tinytag.msi.

• Click Next to start the installation.

• Review the software’s licence agreement and if you accept the terms click I accept the terms

in the Licence Agreement, then Next.

• You will then be asked where you want to install the software (we recommend you use

the default installation path) and whether you would like a shortcut for the software to be

created on your desktop. Once you have made your choices, click Next, then Install.

• The software will then install automatically (you may be prompted by Windows to confirm

your agreement to the installation). When you see the Installation Complete screen, click

Finish.

• Once the installation is complete, you will be asked to restart your computer. Click Yes to do

this.
