ETAP 5.5.

6 Update Installation Guide

This update requires an existing ETAP 5.5.5 installation. The full ETAP 5.5.6 installation, which is a stand-alone installation and does not require an earlier installation, is now being shipped to ETAP users with a valid Upgrade User Support Contract. This document provides installation instructions for downloading the ETAP 5.5.6 update from the www.etap.com web site. The InstallShield initialization screen will be displayed upon running the ETAP 5.5.6 Upgrade Setup (Figure 1).

Figure 1 The setup will automatically check for the existence of ETAP 5.5.5 on the users computer. If ETAP 5.5.5 is not found on the system, the user will be notified that the upgrade is only for ETAP 5.5.5 (Figure 2a).

The next screen shows the path of the files that will be upgraded as well as the files that will be added to the users system (Figure 3). The path is determined automatically by the setup based on the installed location of ETAP 5.5.5. Clicking Next will start the install process. During the installation process, the four files being upgraded will be backed up in the installation folder. An underscore will be prefixed to the name. For example, the 5.5.5 etaps.exe file will become _etaps.exe.
