Downloading the latest build

Unless you have a copy on physical media, first download the latest build from Niagara Community. This topic explains the importance of extracting the files from the download before running the installer program.

  1. If you do not already have a copy, download the latest software zip file from Niagara Community.
  2. Extract (unzip) its contents to a local folder.
    Note: You must extract (unzip) the zip file to a local folder before starting the install, and use the unzipped files for the installation. Although Windows allows you to see the contents of a compressed zip file and even to launch an executable without extracting files, an attempt to install the software this way will fail.
