Upgrade From a Previous Version If FDD is already installed on your machine, the FDD installer can automatically upgrade the current version. When you run the FDD installation package, you will be asked if you want to use the settings from the previous installation. If you click Yes, FDD will be automatically upgraded. Note: If upgrading from FDD View to FDD Scan, and you click Yes to use previous installation settings, note that the installer will remember you had no scanner configured and therefore scanning will not be enabled. This situation can be addressed by clicking No instead and going through the full installation process. If you click No, the installer will take you through the entire installation process so you can change the installation settings as desired. Feith Document Database 8.1 Install Guide 13
