Your default Internet browser will be started automatically by the Windows AutoPlay function and open the product homepage. If the AutoPlay function is turned off, simply open the folder named "MathAid_<product>" from the CD root folder in Windows Explorer, and in this folder open the file named "index.html".

If you prefer to install the product on your hard drive then open CD in Windows Explorer, double-click the file "MathAid_<product>_<release>.exe" from the CD root folder and follow the simple instructions you will see on the screen.

To start the installation, double-click the downloaded exe-file and follow the simple instructions you will see on the screen.

LAN installation

Make the folder where the product was installed readable through your LAN. You can publish the folder at your local webserver, or simply use file sharing. It does not matter how you do that because our software is running on the client side only. There are no special requirements on server OS and/or webserver because nothing is being executed on the server side. To ensure the license restrictions concerning copies we recommend to use a webserver and turn off "directory browsing" ("automatic index generation"). Then your LAN users cannot make workable copies of the product using software such as WebZIP, Teleport, wget, etc.


Uninstallation

To completely uninstall MathAid's product just remove the folder where it was installed. No specific uninstall procedure is required.
