Installation
Be sure to read the Readme.txt and HMCS User's Guide.pdf files
included in the zip.
1. Download the HMCS zip file to a temporary folder.
2. Extract all of the HMCS files from the zip.
3. Create a new folder in the Program Files folder called HMCS.
4. Copy all of the HMCS files to this new folder.
5. Right-mouse-drag from the HMCS.exe to the Start menu to create a shortcut.
Notes:
1. HMCS will not correctly function on OS's after Windows XP, including Windows 2008,
Vista and Windows 7. Use of VirtualPC will probably be required.
2. HMCS creates and/or modifies an .ini configuration file in the same folder as the .exe
executable file. No other changes to your computer system, any operating system
files, or the registry are made. Removing HMCS from your computer is as easy as
deleting all of the files that were unzipped.
