electrolux — 1.3 AUTOMATIC SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

Global Connectivity & Technology – System Integration Team 1.3 AUTOMATIC SOFTWARE INSTALLATION The automatic installation procedure consists in the AutoInstall.cmd command file. This is a sequence of batch commands that install all software pre-requisites and the SidekickPC software using default settings. You must log on as full Administrator in order to make the installation of the software. By default, the automatic software installation procedure installs SidekickPC in the C:\Electrolux\SidekickPC folder. You can however override this default and setup the software in a different directory. Please refer to the next paragraph if you need to change the default installation directory.

In the specific case of Windows 8 , there is a preliminary step that must be done manually before launching the AutoInstall.cmd file. This preliminary step is documented in chapter 1.3.1. If you are installing on Windows 8, please read that chapter and then continue from here. The following recommendations apply: 1. Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10 : right-click the AutoInstall.cmd file and then select the " Run as Administrator " option. Depending on your actual configuration, the operating system may ask you for a further authorization. Please remember that you must explicitly execute AutoInstall.cmd as administrator even if you are already logged in with an administrative account.

Please remember that this setup procedure does not install the programs that are already installed in your PC. In addition, the automatic setup procedure implements some workarounds to a few known setup problems of the SQL Server software. The workaround is that of forcing a reboot of the PC right before the installation of SQL Server 2008. After you start the execution of AutoInstall.cmd , you can see the welcome screen: Fig. 1. Automatic setup: welcome setup If you press CTRL+C you can abort the procedure. If you press instead any other key combination, the automatic setup starts. Depending on your computer configuration, the setup procedure may last several minutes.
