Upgrade Installation
When you don't have the full installer, i.e. you
have the upgrade
installer, you must have a running version of the
prior version
installed, namely PD Pro 4.1 (not 4.0). If you
already have 4.0, get
the free 4.1
updater from the patches
page
and install 4.1 on top of 4.0, before applying the
5.0 upgrade.
If you purchased the upgrade from an earluier
version, such as upgrade
from v3 to v5, or sidegrade from v2 or others to v5,
you will receive
the necessary files to upgrade to 4.1, so that you
can then apply the
upgrade to v5.
Installing on
64-bit OS
(Vista, Windows 7,...)
PD Pro 5 is a 32-bit (x86) application. You can run
it just fine under
64-bit Windows, but it is recommended, for clean
organization's sake,
that you install it in the folder that is designated
for such
applications:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Project
Dogwaffle Professional
Of course, you can install it in a totally different
place of your own
choosing if you
prefer.
Default Extraction folder
There are two phases to the installtion: first,
extracting the many
files from the installer into a temporary location.
Then running the
actual installer that is amongst those extracted
files, and designating
the final destination for the files.
The initial extraction (phase 1) creates a PD Pro
Installation folder
that is by default placed on your desktop, so you
shouldn't have
problems with UAC conflicts or difficulties finding
the folder if
there's any issues during phase 2.
