Step 1: Click on the link that was provided and emailed to you on
your purchase to begin downloading your new program.
Step 2: You will begin to download
the application, and you will receive a prompt asking if you
would like to run it from its current location or save it
to disk. We recommend you saving it to disk so you have a
copy incase you need it again. Once you choose to download
the program to disk you should see the option of where to
save the application. The prompt will look like this:
Please make sure that you choose to save
to your DESKTOP, so that you can easily find it once you finish
the download. Make sure that where it says "Save" above in
the picture, it says "Desktop." You will then hit "save" and
the program SystemSoappro.exe will save to your desktop.
Step 3: Locate the System
Soap Pro program from your desktop. Find the program SystemSoapPro
from your desktop and click on the program to install it.
You will then be directed the steps to complete the rest of
the install process.
Note: The settings within the application
are set the way the program should be installed; it is not
necessary to change any of the settings while you are installing
the program, unless you have a specific reason for doing so.
If you are unsure about the settings while you are installing
the program, it is better to just leave it as is.
