PRG Software Setup Instructions

Installing Your PRG Software
This install document is written for FEPipe v7.0 NozzlePRO v9.0, originally released in September
2014.
The installer will build a complete C:\PRG\PRG2015 folder. You do not need an existing installation to
install this build.
The FEPipe 7.0 NozzlePRO 9.0 installer is bundled into a PRG2015.zip file. The PRG2015.zip file
contains:
Setup_PRG2015.EXE (program installer)

After the PRG2015.zip download is complete, extract the contents to a folder on the host computer.
The Setup_PRG2015.EXE is a bootstrapper executable that extracts the MSI, checks prerequisites,
downloads dependencies and configures install environment. Both network and non-network users must
have a full program installation on their computer. The Setup_PRG2015.EXE must be run on all users
computers that require access to any PRG software program. Network drives are only supported for data
files. FEPipe 7.0 NozzlePRO 9.0 must be installed on the end users computer.
To begin installation you must have Administrator privileges to the host computer and a live internet
connection. The Setup_PRG2015.EXE installer will not execute unless started with full Administrator
privileges and will not complete without an internet connection.
The installer will check if Micrsoft.NET 4 or Visual C++ 2010 is installed on your computer. PRG2015
requires both as prerequisites for installation. If it is missing, the installer pings Microsoft for download.

Navigate to folder where the Setup_PRG2015.EXE was extracted

If you do not have Administrator, privileges please follow these steps. Alternatively, restart Windows and
login with an Administrator account.
