Upgrading an Installed DXLab Application

If you haven't yet installed the DXLab Launcher, do that first.

To upgrade an application,

  1. If you're using a PC running Vista, first login to the account named Administrator

  2. click the Launcher's Config button to display its Configuration window

  3. click the New ? button in the Configuration window's upper right corner to update the installation status and release availability of all DXLab applications

  4. locate the the DXLab application you wish to upgrade in the Configuration window's Program Paths panel; if a newer release of this application is available, this applications Available release will be shown with red characters, and its Action button will be labeled Upgrade

    • if the Action button is instead labeled Install, then the application has not yet been installed and thus cannot be upgraded; see installing an application

  5. click the application's Upgrade button, and the Launcher will display its Upgrade Status window while downloading and deploying upgraded application; successful completion will be reported in this window

    • if the application's Program Path entry is empty or specifies a non-existent file, then clicking the Upgrade button will generate an error message; using the Sel button, locate the pathname of the application's executable, and then click the Upgrade button
