Installation types
Choose between one of two installation types for the installation.
Standard installation
Select this installation type if you want to install the latest version of DriveControlSuite.
DriveControlSuite is installed in the version-independent .../Programme/STOBER/DriveControlSuite/ directory. During the
installation process, you do not need to specify any additional installation instructions.
Provided that you are connected to the Internet, a check is performed prior to installation to determine if a newer software
version is available. If a newer version is already available, it is downloaded and installed in place of the started version.
If an older software version is already installed on your PC, it is deleted prior to installation. However, if the latest version is
already installed on your PC, a new installation is not performed.
User-defined installation
Select this installation type if you want to install a specific version of DriveControlSuite or if you still need an older version
that is already installed on your PC.
You can use this setting to change the default installation directory and manage the version-dependent destination folders.
Checking whether the software version is up-to-date before installation is optional.
