There are three ways to upgrade your version of VSys One:
For any option it's important that no one be currently using the files about to be upgraded.
Use the auto-update tool
Using the Check for Program Updates tool is the simplest way of applying updates. This tool will attempt to download and install updates to VSys.exe
and VSys.chm.
It will not update the VSys Kiosk or the Standalone E-mail Robot.
Because we release updates for download before making them available in the Check for Program Updates tool, an update you're looking for may not be available in that tool right away. If the latest version from the website does not appear in this tool, that does not mean that the tool is broken or the update isn't available; use the "Download and overwrite existing files" method below.
Download and overwrite existing files
VSys.exe
and VSys.chm
.VSysKiosk.exe
file.VSysOneEmailRobot.exe
file.There are no DLLs to update, nor any hidden files. Remember that the VSys.ini
file must be in place from your previous installation since it has your registration and database connection information. If you want to do your upgrade in a different folder or for testing, copy the VSys.ini
file from the old folder into the new one.
Re-run the VSys One installer
The full VSys One installer will upgrade all appropriate files (VSys.exe
, VSys.chm
, VSysKiosk.exe
) as long as you install to the existing VSys One folder; it will copy in all necessary files.
If the new version requires a schema change to the database, VSys will prompt you before performing the schema update. See VSys Schema Updates for more information.
After any upgrade, be sure to run the Administrator tools panel.
