2.Unzip the Program.

This program will be saved as a folder named Setup38, containing zip files. Right click the Setup38 Folder and select Extract All. After clicking Extract, the user will need a password provided by either Geonics or a rental company. At times, one may find that there are other issues with unzipping the files. If this is the case, the user may receive a copy via email that has been extracted. However, to avoid antivirus and other software blocks the file(s) will likely have the extension (name.xxx) part of the program changed from “name.exe” to “name.txt”. The “.txt” allows the file(s) to be download via email. After the user receives the program file with the “.txt” extension the file will need to be renamed to “.exe” before it will run in Windows.

3. Navigate the program’s installation wizard.

Read the Welcome Screen and click Next. It is important to close all other programs before running the installation program.
