Standard Installation from Download - Steps to Take

bulletChoose the version to download.
bulletOpen the download or save it to a folder of your choice.
bulletIf you saved the download file, "run" it (SMAP105 or SAVI208.exe) by the usual techniques - double click it in Windows Explorer or My Computer or run it from the Run command line.
bulletAs you do this, note the folder to which it will be unzipped (the default is C:\MSAVI for SAVI MAP or C:\SAVI for Classic). See the note below.
bulletWhichever way you executed the download, it will perform an InstalShield type installation of both Paradox 8 for Windows and of the Strategy SAVI application. There are a couple of pauses in the unzipping process where you will be prompted to continue.
bulletStrategy SAVI will delete the unzipped installation files during the first run.

NOTE: The installer presently in use may not handle a non-standard target folder name so please install to the standard. For a quick note on moving SAVI to another folder click here.
