• | Before installing on teachers' computers, modify the Setup.ini file and ensure it is in the same folder as the Accelerus installation file being used. |
• | Double click AccelerusInstaller.exe and wait while the installation process checks your computer for missing pre-requisites and previous versions. |
• | If your computer is missing components such as the .NET framework, these will be listed in the installation wizard window. Uninstallation of a previous version of Accelerus will also be listed here, if applicable. |
Click the Next button to install these.
|
On some computers you may be informed that some components, eg .NET must be installed separately. You will need to do so and then restart the Accelerus installation process.
Also, you may be requested to restart your computer during installation. If this is the case, you will need to recommence the Accelerus installation after restarting your computer.

OR

Note that a copy of the licence agreement may also be found on the Accelerus website.
This window will not appear for a Standard installation as only the component Accelerus can and will be installed.

If, after having installed Accelerus, you need to install additional features, you must uninstall Accelerus and reinstall again, following the above instructions.
If you run the same installation file when Accelerus is already installed, you will be presented with a window asking you to either uninstall or repair the current installation. You should uninstall and then run the installation program again.
