  1. Download the file to a workstation that has access to LifeCare Plus.

    P:\PVX
  4. Double-click the installation program you downloaded to begin installing the point release or patch.
  5. Click "Next" when you have finished reading the welcome screen, or click "Cancel" to stop the installation.
  6. Check the box and click "Next" once you have finished reading the license agreement, or click "Cancel" to stop the installation.
  7. Confirm that the path in the installation folder matches the path in your "Start In" field from above. If not, change it accordingly, or click "Cancel" to stop the installation.
  8. You will receive a message warning you that the folder already exists. This is expected. Click "Yes" to proceed or "No" to cancel the procedure.
