Quick Start Workstation Upgrade and Installation Guide
Introduction
The workstation application is a standalone installation of ARGUS Enterprise that does not require any server
components to operate. All processes are performed locally on the PC.

Before You Start
Note: The install must be performed using the end-user account, and the end-user of the application must have
local administrator rights during the upgrade/installation process in order to install the new version and set up the
database. If the end user does not have administrator rights they will be unable to complete the install or run the
configuration utility. The installation will prompt for Administrator Credentials before the installation is actually
performed (see installation section). An administrator could then enter credentials at that point as an alternative
to granting local administrator rights to the end-user for the duration of the install.
Add the end-user account to the Administrators Group. For more information on adding user accounts to a group,
go to Microsoft Windows Help.

Note: If this is a new installation, go to the section titled Installation Instructions.
Note: The upgrade must be performed using the end-user account, and the end-user of the application must have
local administrator rights in order to perform the configuration utility steps described in the remainder of this
section.

Important Note: The upgrade of a database to AE version 10.6 and subsequent versions from a pre-10.5 database
will require a significantly longer time to accomplish than previous versions due to some underlying technical
changes. Please expect upgrade times that may last up to several hours for very large databases. Ensure that you
have a current backup before proceeding with an upgrade.
