Upgrading to PR-Tracker 4.50
Download prtrk450zip.exe
(10.4M) and store it in a temporary directory.
Unzip file prtrk450zip.exe into the same
directory.
Close all running programs.
Make sure you close the Microsoft Office Toolbar.
Backup your existing PR-Tracker database
(make a copy of the directory tree) and program files so that you may return to an earlier
version of PR-Tracker if desired.
Run setup.exe and select the Upgrade
installation option. Install PR-Tracker into the same directory as before.
The setup.exe will automatically update
the PR-Tracker program and database files. Setup.exe will also copy all setup files to the
NETSETUP subdirectory of the PR-Tracker database directory so that others can install the
upgrade from the network.
After one person has installed the
upgrade, the prtracker.key will be modified such that all users starting the old version
of PR-Tracker will be notified to upgrade.
The PR-Tracker setup program does not
detect Desktop shortcuts to PRTRACK.EXE and change them to PRTRACKER.EXE. You will
have to delete the old shortcuts manually.
If you plan to user PR-Tracker over the
internet, also download PR-Tracker Web Client prwc450zip.exe (9.3M) and
and follow the instructions for setting
up PR-Tracker to work over the internet.
If you are upgrading from version 4.30 or
4.40 see How To Work
Around Upgrade Bug (Error 52).
If you have any problems installing

dialog.
