Steps to downloading and installing TKO
1. Uninstall trial version if installed?
If you have a trial or previous old version of TKO on this PC then you need to uninstall it first? – If not go directly to step 2
If so then uninstall it by following the steps below, otherwise skip these steps and go to (2)
- Go to windows “Control Panel” Add/Remove programs
- Find TKO Business Modeller in list and click uninstall
- Then rename old sample database –
Why rename?
The full TKO version (the one you are about to install) comes with a fully complete operational business model with over 300 pre-written documents – the trial does not, if you skip this step the database will not be updated and you will only be left with the trial version. By renaming it doesn’t delete the current trial database and will still be available to open and use.
To rename see steps below:
- Open Windows Explorer (right click over windows start button) select Explore
- Find folder “C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\My Documents\Tko\Database” and rename it to “Database2” e.g. “C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\My Documents\Tko\Database2” please note “Database2” is just a suggested name you could use anything.
