Installing Project Lavina
The Project Lavina 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 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 installation, press the Advanced button.
2a. In the next screen, you can change the installation directory and specify whether a firewall exception and a desktop icon should be added.
By enabling the Help make Project Lavina even better checkbox you agree with the collection of non-personally identifiable usage information, such as hardware configuration, driver version, etc. If you do not want to participate, disable the checkbox.
Click Continue to proceed with customizing the installation.
2b. In this step, you can specify whether the Lavina license server will run locally or on another machine.
If you select the option Remote you have to fill in the IP address of your Lavina license server in the field Primary License Server. Please leave the port 30304 unchanged. An Alternate License Server is used when the primary one does not respond.
See the Licensing page for more information.
2c. When ready click the Install button. If the installer detects previous versions of Lavina, they are automatically uninstalled.
If the installer detects any applications that need to be closed, they are automatically closed.
3. If the installation is successful, you will get this screen. Press the Finish button.
