2.7. How do I move this system to another workstation?

Here are the instructions to copy the program and files over to a new system.

The first thing you want to do is to install the original installation program on the new computer.  This needs to be the original version you purchased so the registration codes that you have will unlock it from the trial version to the registered version.  This will set up the new system to run the program.  The only problem is that there will be no data in the new program.  You need to copy the old files from your old computer to your new computer.

Just run a backup of the data from within the program - just click on File, Backup/Restore data.  Select Backup and the files should be backed up to a file called envfiles.zip.  You can just copy this file to the new computer and run the restore function, this will ask where the restore file is, just select where you put it and your data should be restored completely.

If you no longer have the original installation and are not current with your Support/Upgrades/Updates license, then you would be required to purchase the upgrade to the latest version as we do not store older versions on our server for download.  The upgrade purchase page is available here: http://www.starresoft.com/envupurchase.htm

If you are running the current version on the old machine, then just download the software from our web site as the registration codes you already have will unlock it from the trial version to the registered version.

If you are going to be upgrading to the latest version, you will find the information below for upgrading..
