Installation

pcdMagic is installed via Microsoft's "ClickOnce Deployment" technology. What you need to do is:

1. Prior to downloading, ensure that you have all the latest updates installed on you PC, via the Microsoft Update manager found under Windows "Help and Support".
2. Download pcdMagic for Windows Zip file.
3. Extract all of the files from the Zip file to some convenient location (right click the Zip file, and select "Extract All"). This will create a pcdMagic directory at the same location as the ZIP file. Note: You can't install pcdMagic for Windows by just opening the Zip file and running the setup file from within the Zip archive - you must first extract all files.
4. Once you have extracted all the files, run the "setup.exe" file in the pcdMagic directory. If you do not already have Microsoft's .Net 4 framework or the latest version of Microsoft's setup manager installed on your PC, this will be automatically downloaded and installed prior to pcdMagic being installed.
5. After you have successfully installed pcdMagic, you can delete the pcdMagic directory that was created when you unzipped the distribution file.

Note for Windows 8 Users: If you have Windows 8's "SmartScreen" feature enabled, SmartScreen may block pcdMagic's installer, as well as the pcdMagic app itself. If this happens, then ust click "More Info", and then click" Run anyway".

Once you have done this, pcdMagic is ready to go. Using pcdMagic is described on the "User Manual" page.
