Installation

Important: Installing  under NT/2000/XP/2003, you must have administrative rights to install the program as a service. You can install it as an application even without administrative rights. If you have an old version of the program running NEVER INSTALL the new version into the old version's directory

To properly install Cobian Backup, simply run the Cbu6Setup.exe program. Choose a directory to install, for example C:\Cobian Backup and select the installation mode:

As a service: If you are installing under NT/2000/XP/2003, this option will be enabled as the recommended one. You will be prompted if you want to run the service under the system account or other account. If you are accessing network resources, you cannot run the service under the system account and the service must run under another existing account, with the necessary privileges to access the network.

As an application, autostart for any user: This option installs the program as an application, and starts it automatically when any user logs on. This option is also disabled if you don't have administrative rights.

As an application, autostart the current user: This option installs the program as an application, and starts it automatically when the current user logs on.

As an application, no autostart: The application must be manually started from the icon in the start- menu.

You may need to restart the computer after the installation is completed. See the FAQ if you have problems when installig as a service.
