Installing Conflict Catcher:
If At Ease software is installed on your computer, you must turn it off before you install Conflict Cather 3. For instructions, see the manual that came with your At Ease software.
Before you insert the Conflict Catcher 3 installation disk, we recommend you restart your Macintosh with all extensions turned off. This has the added benefit of disabling any virus checking software that might mistakenly suspect that a virus might be trying to "infect" your system. To do this just hold down one of the shift keys as you restat your system. As your systam starts up , it will display the message "Welcome To Macintosh" in a box at the center of the screen. If you're holding down the shift key when this message appears, just below it you'll see "Extensions off"—this means that none of your startup files will be loaded and your system should start up sucessfully to the Finder.
Once the Finder appears, you should insert your Conflict Catcher 3 installation disk and locate the "CC Installer" icon…
Double-click on the icon to run the installation program, and you'll see the installer's introductory screen…
Click "Continue" to get started with the installation—Conflict Catcher 3 installer's main window will appear…
When you've read read the contents of the install information window and are satisfied with the Install Destination, click "Install" to actually start transferring the Conflict Catcher files.
Once the installation is done you are urged to click on "Restart" so that you can begin to benefit from Conflict Catcher right away!
Conflict Catcher 3 Removal:
To remove all of Conflict Catcher 3's files, double click on "CC Installer™", click "Continue" on the splash screen and then hold down the option key. This will make the "Install" button change into "Remove". Click on "Remove" to completely remove Conflict Catcher 3.
If you installed over another startup file manager you will find the previous startup file manager files in the "Control Panels (Disabled)" and "Extensions (Disabled)" folders. Locate those files in the "Control Panels (Disabled)" and "Extensions (Disabled) folders and move them to the "Control Panels" and "Extensions" folders. Once you restart your computer, you will have your previous startup file manager back.
