PC Share Register Plus is a server-based application. You must therefore install PC Share Register Plus directly on a network server in the same way as you would on a standalone system. You can then run the installation on each workstation and select the Network Workstation option when asked to select the installation type. This will create a shortcut on the local workstation.
It is no longer possible to update
PTP PC Share Register Plus software from any PC on your network. The new
installer which provides a more robust, controlled and secure installation
will only allow the installation to take place on the central machine
(server or PC) where the database resides.
PC Share Register Plus requires a network drive to be mapped. It will not be possible to run the program over a network without a mapped network drive letter. If you are in any doubt please contact your network administrator.
If your network is slow, for example, Wide Area Network, you may wish to install the programs on the local hard disk and access only the data over the network. In this case, do not manually create shortcuts on the workstation, but for each workstation, run the installer and specify a local folder for the programs and specify the mapped network folder where the data is located.
Having programs open during installation can cause problems. Please ensure that all PTP programs are closed on all workstations before you start.
Select the PC Share Register Plus link on the Software Downloads webpage.
After the installation open the PC Share Register Plus program and enter your registration details.
From the list of programs on the page select PC Share Register Plus. You can then follow the on screen Installation Wizard.
