Illustrations and some program file names used throughout this guide are typical only.
The program(s) you are intending to install may show different illustrations and file names.
The principles described will however be the same.

Ensure you are installing the CURRENT, that is TODAY's program and interactive databases issue. All Mistral Expert System software is subject to regular, sometimes daily program upgrades and also database updates. Access Codes are matched to the current program issue and are set with a very short 'use by date'. Access Codes will generally only work to activate for a few days after you receive them.

To install Mistral programs and databases it is necessary to run the setup procedure that is always supplied with bona-fide copies of the software. It is impossible to install programs successfully in any other way. Any attempt to do so would be bypassing critical security and registration procedures and result only in corrupted or incomplete file installations that are intentionally rendered impossible to operate.

Installation from downloaded exe file
A downloaded Mistral program system is issued in a single #setup.exe file and which contains often many thousands of individual program files, interactive databases, Help pages, graphical images and other essential files which comprise the complete system. It is recommended that you temporarily create a folder into which you save the #setup.exe file downloaded from Mistral's website and which you can easily find.

If you have not yet downloaded you may do so via this link

Depending upon which version of Windows Operating System your computer is using you should see a form, most likely at top right of your monitor, and which asks you to confirm what you wish to do with the downloaded Setup file after downloading has completed. Be patient. The Setup file, containing many thousand files that have been compressed in size to speed downloading times, particularly for poor Internet connections, is still very large. Downloading can therefore take several minutes.

For the sake of simplicity the preferred option, if it appears, is to select Open.

Or...

After file downloading has completed click on the downloaded file name in order to open the form below.
Click Next on the form to automatically start the unpacking and installation processes.
