Install PowerTerm Pro

Note: As you're downloading the install file, the type of information that appears on your screen varies depending on the browser you're using.

  1. When the download is finished, you must expand the setup file.

  2. Choose Run in the Start menu.

  3. Click on the Browse button in the "Run" dialog box.

  4. Locate the directory where you downloaded the setup file and click on ptermpro8_83.exe. When prompted for a location for the expanded files, select an empty, temporary directory and click on Open and then click on OK.

  5. In past installations, it was necessary to view a file after expanding the download for information regarding the serial number to use. The serial number is now pre-bound into the installer so you will not need to enter that.

  6. Close all windows on your desktop. Start the install by again clicking on Start and Browse. In the PowerTerm Enterprise directory you expanded into your temporary file folder, locate and click on setup.exe.

  7. If you already have Powerterm installed, you may receive a message "Powerterm is already installed on your computer. Do you want to continue with Installation?" Click on the yes button.
