2 Installation:
For installing the software please start Windows. Do not yet put the
installation CD-ROM into the drive.

1. Run the program "Software" in the control panel folder

(Start / Settings / Control Panel).

2. An alphabetical list of all installed programs is displayed. Please check

first whether WinREG is already listed.

If that is the case, you should uninstall it. This process will be described
now. If it is a first-time installation or WinREG has already been
uninstalled, please continue with point 6.
Attention: Please avoid to install a WinREG update into an existing
WinREG folder, which contains a version you do not want to delete. In
this case choose a different folder.

3. Click on the line „WinREG“ in the list of programs, so that the

background colour changes. After that click the button "Add/Remove".
You will be asked whether you really want to remove this application.
Confirm this please. When you are asked, whether shared files should be
deleted, please select “Keep all” (or “Delete none“), in order to keep files
that might be needed by other applications. The file CMMCONN.DAT
contains your connection data and should not be removed therefore.

4. A message that several parts of WinREG could not be removed, may

be ignored.

5. Deinstallation ends with the message "Uninstall completed

successfully".

6. Now please insert the WinREG-CD into the appropriate drive.

3 Troubleshooting

1. Error "OLEAUT32.DLL has not the correct version" (or similar)

This error can happen with Windows NT, when installation was not
performed by the Administrator. The update of this file is reserved to
the Admin, because NT itselft works with it. It is not sufficient to be
an user with Administratorrights in the Windows System Folder.

If this error occurrs deinstall the package and call the Administrator
to perform the installation. Once installed the program is startable by
everybody owning the corresponding rights in the installation folder.
