Using the Planets installation program:
1. Do one of the following to start the Install
program:
a. Open directory folder where you have
unpacked Planets and double-click on Install
b. Using command-line, change to directory where
you have unpacked Planets and type Install
2. Follow the Installation instructions on the screen.
3. The installation program will create a Planets
folder on your desktop, which you may move, if
needed, to another location such as your Games
or Utilities folder. Personally, I have a copy in my
"Utilities" and "Startup" folders.
Installing over a previous version of Planets:
Installing over a previous version will produce no ill
effects, and a new version of Planets will be able to
pick up your settings as contained within Planets.ini
