1. Unzip the dbvisit_replicate2.x.x_win.zip to a temporary location.

2. Double click the Dbvisit Replicate Windows installer: dbvrep2.x.x-Inst.exe and click Next in installer.

3. Choose the version to install: on 32-bit Windows, only the 32-bit version can be chosen for installation. On 64-bit, both 32-bit and 64-bit are available and it is recommended to use the 64-bit version.

5. Test the software by starting the Dbvisit Replicate command console: Start > Dbvisit > Replicate > Dbvisit Replicate Command Console

7. Exit out of the command console by typing "exit"
