Installing 1Edit

Note: Due to the way that Windows® 8.1 manages applications, you will need to perform the following steps for each user who will be logging in and using 1Edit on the machine.

A single batch file (.bat)is used to install 1Edit. This file performs installation by "side-loading" the software.

If you have already installed a previous version of 1Edit, then this installer will automatically upgrade 1Edit and retain any existing projects, templates and configuration files used by the application. Do not uninstall the previous version of 1Edit, otherwise you will lose existing projects and will need to re-deploy the additional configuration files.

ClosedInstall 1Edit

  1. Log in to the machine as the user who will run 1Edit.

  2. Copy the installation folder to a temporary location on the local machine, or access it from a mapped network drive.

    Note: Security settings typically prevent you from installing directing from the C: drive, so place the installation folder within a sub-folder.

  3. If the folder is zipped, unzip it now. You cannot install from a zipped folder.
  4. Navigate to the unzipped folder and double-click on install1edit.bat.
  5. 1Edit will install automatically, messages in the window will indicate success or failure.

If your administrator has included in the app package a predefined 1Edit Template and config file then these will automatically get deployed too (see Integration with 1Spatial Management Suite Worklist Service).

You can delete the temporary installation folder now, but If you are using survey tools, then see Installing the 1Edit Device Extension.
