Installing the Program

Please run Setup.exe and follow the instructions.

Un-Installing/De-Installing the Program

Go to Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs and choose SiSoftware Sandra. Click on Add/Remove button and follow the instructions. If you did not like this release maybe you'd care to try other versions. Thanks.

The Install Disk (InnoSetup Installer)

The installation disk should contain the following files:

Setup.ExeThe self-extracting installer

The Install Disk (Windows Installer)

The installation disk should contain the following files:

InstMsiA.ExeANSI Windows Setup Installer Engine
InstMsiW.ExeUnicode Windows Setup Installer Engine
Setup.ExeInstaller Stub
Setup.IniInstaller Configuration File
*.msiInstaller package

If any of the above files are missing, try to download the package from another site. If some are corrupted - there must have been an error during transmission (check that you downloaded in binary mode) - repeat the operation.

All program files are compressed, so you should let the Install Wizard decompress & copy them to the hard disk. The Install program will also create a program group and add the program items.

The Installed Files

After installation, this is what you should have in the Sandra's folder:

sandra.exeMain program file
sandra.hlpProgram help file
sandra.cntProgram help file index
san16.exeHelper library

And in the Windows\System folder:

mfc70.dllMicrosoft VC++ MFC library
mfc70u.dllMicrosoft VC++ MFC library
msvcrt70.dllMicrosoft VC++ MFC library

These files are used by most MFC applications written in Microsoft Visual C++, i.e. most modern Windows applications, so it's likely that you have them already on your system in which case they will not be copied.

N WARNING !!! N

IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SAVE/CLOSE EVERYTHING YOU ARE WORKING AT (open documents, files, etc.) BEFORE RUNNING THE PROGRAM FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE PROGRAM WAS TESTED FOR INCOMPATIBILITIES BUT YOU NEVER KNOW…

If you find no problems then you can cool down. But do save regularly.
