Installing the program is practically no different from installing any other, and in some aspects it is even easier. Often, an application is distributed as a silent installer. What it is will be considered a little later, but now we’ll figure out where to get the installer itself.
The program is distributed under a paid license, respectively, you can download it from official resources. However, it is possible to download a free version from various torrent trackers to your computer. After downloading the installer file, just double-click the left mouse button to start unpacking the program files.
What is a silent installation?
You already know how to install Matkad on your computer, now we’ll deal with other aspects of this operation. As noted earlier, the application is installed in silent mode. This means that the process is happening in the background, you will not see either a window with a progress bar or a notification of successful completion. As a result, a shortcut will appear on the desktop and in the Start menu.
You already know how to install Matkad, but you should be aware of one procedure that must be completed before starting the installer. Since you will not know about the start of the installation, to be sure that it has started, it is better to launch the installer file not with a double click, but through the context menu. To do this, right-click on it and select "Run as administrator".
What to do if the program does not install
What should I do if a lot of time has passed and the desktop shortcut has not appeared? The answer is simple. Before installing "Matkad," check to see if your system has the following software:
- MSXML 4.0 SP2 or SP3.
- Microsoft Visual C ++ 2008 and 2005.
- .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.
If these programs did not appear in the installed applications, then before installing Matkad, install them. They are required for the successful completion of the task.
What to do if the program is not activated
If you downloaded the program from the tracker, then you do not have a licensed version that needs to be activated. Often the installer does this automatically, but errors happen. For manual activation you should do the following:
- Open the application directory. To do this, click on the PCM shortcut and select "File Location".
- Go to the Matchcad 15 folder and then to licenses.
- Use Notepad to open the license.dat file.
- Enter the physical address of your computer instead of the line 00-00-00-00-00-00.
- Save the document.
You can find out the address through the command line, just enter ipconfig / all to do this.
