Installation
Before installing Deep View at any time, we advise closing all applications.
Users must shut down open instances of applications with referenced ActiveX controls when prompted. Selecting to ‘Ignore’ will result in a prompt to reboot. If the user selects to ignore and reboot files do not register properly .
This can be fixed by going to Start Menu > Settings > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs and selecting Deep View/Deep Publish in the program list. Select [Change] > [Next] > Repair .
Upgrading via the CAB installer will silently uninstall previously installed versions. Once started, the process cannot be cancelled. This will be fixed in the next release :
The only workaround here is to reinstall your previous version if you wish to rollback.
Troubleshooting
3D graphics use more resources (memory) than 2D. If you experience memory difficulties, decrease the size of your screen resolution.
