Installing

Project Lavina

Chaos Vantage


The Project Lavina Chaos Vantage installer automatically removes any previous installations. This allows seamless upgrade from previous versions. If you experience problems you can manually uninstall the previous versions to perform a clean install.

Before running the installation, make sure your Windows account has administrative privileges.

 

Run the installer.

1. Upon the start of the installation, Windows may ask you for permission to run the installer with administrator privileges. Please confirm.

2. You are presented with the Lavina Chaos Vantage licensing agreement. Please take a moment to review the agreement. Check the I accept the Agreement checkbox and click Install to proceed with standard installation.

If you need to customize your Lavina Chaos Vantage installation, press the Advanced button.
