Adminsoft Accounts Installation/Update from ZIP File
====================================================

Create a folder, anywhere will do, and copy the contents of this ZIP file into it.

Add the files admnstup.exe and accounts.exe to the list of trusted, safe or excluded
programs in your anit-virus software (the terminology varies between different anti-virus
products).

To begin the installation or software update process, run admnstup.exe    Sometimes
there are Windows security issues, so the best way to run this file is to single right
click on it, and then from the menu that appears select 'Run as administrator'.

If installing the software, do not try to install it into your 'C:\Program Files' folder.
Windows only expects programs in this folder, where as Adminsoft Accounts stores both
program and data (in sub-folders) all in one folder. The best places to install are off
your root folder (ie. 'C:\' this is the default location) or your Windows user folder
(if you're likey to be the only user).  Also, do not install onto a NAS drive or into a
folder that is automatically backed up to the cloud, as they can corrupt the data.  You
can use either for backups, just not as storage areas for your live data.

If the installation/update does not work, and/or you get various error messages, this may
be due to your anti-virus software preventing the copying, updating and/or deleting of files.
In which case the only course of action is  little drastic: temporarily disable your anti-virus
software.  Then try the installation/update again.  Do NOT use your internet browser or email
system until you have enabled your anti-virus software again.  if the installation/update works
with your anit-virus software disabled, please report this to the vendor of your anti-virus
software.  Once Adminsoft Accounts is installed/updated, do not forget to enable your anti-virus
software.

If you are installing the software on a computer that is running Unbuntu, Linux, Mac OS,
or any operating system other than Windows, please be aware of a licensing issue:  Admnisoft
