ESATINFORMER UPDATE PAGE

Compatibility

ESATInformer 1.30.x is compatible with all versions of XWall starting with version 3.34

Update Installation

Un-installing ESATInformer will not make you start from scratch it simply will remove the old program files and the entry in the MS add/remove table. All your data files are preserved. In addition the new install will not over write the old data. This however is the reason that you have to manually delete some files at times when a new release is installed. In most cases that's the style sheets (CSS). Whenever we add a new style, a color or a type face we need to publish a new style sheet. If you forget to delete the old style sheet the new reports will not display correctly.

1. Make a backup of your ESATInformer directory.
2. Stop ESAT Agent & Uninstall the service
