Install & Uninstall

Archive Contents

Install

To install Copyto, extract the distributed files to any directory (not using a long filename and full-path name of less than 64 bytes). Then find the new file called "Install.inf". Right-click it, then choose Install.

It is possible that the popup menu for "Install.inf" may not display an install command. This will most likely be if you have associated ".inf" files with a different command. If this is the case try double-clicking the file "Install.reg", this will restore the original association for ".inf" files.

Uninstall

Use the Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs item. Select the Copyto item (listed as "Copyto (Remove Only)") and click the Add/Remove button.
