 +====== Installing System Five ======
  
-  * Map the network drive. We usually use the W drive for standardization purposes. To do this, right click on MyComputer and select “Map Network Drive”. It will show you a box called //Map Network Drive//. Fill out the folder box with the exact server name & the windward folder and click on Finish to save the mapping. +See [[https://support.windwardsoftware.com/a/solutions/articles/66000475932]]
- +
-  * Installing System Five: Download a copy of your System Five application here: ftp://ftp.windward-ca.com/pub/windows/Release/windows/ and run it. +
- +
-  * Installing Pervasive: Download copy of your Pervasive installer here: ftp://ftp.windward-ca.com/pub/windows/ and run it (for a client station, please download x86 - make sure it matches the pervasive version number on the server). +
- +
-  * If the current version of your System Five does not match the one that’s on the other computers, copy the bin contents from the server/main computer and overwrite the bin contents that you have in your local C drive.  Note that the System Five installer from the ftp site is an old version.  You might have version 6 running.  You need to have the same version of System Five. +
- +
-  * Open your bin folder and look for a file named //SystemFive.exe//. Highlight, right click and send shortcut to your desktop (delete the old shortcut that automatically populated the desktop when you installed the System Five application earlier). +
- +
-  * On the desktop, double click on the System Five icon.  This should take you to a page where you are asked to link.  Please click on //Link to new or existing workstation// then click on //Next// When you see the window where you can select a drive, click on the dropdown and select “W” (if you mapped to W earlier), otherwise, click on the drive that you mapped to.  You should see the Windward folder.  Double click the folder until you get to System Five >> Data.  Then click on //Next// until you reach //Finish// You will have installed System Five successfully.  Try logging in to make sure.  The company box in the log in area should read something like this: W:\\Windward\System5\Data.+
