How do I install the new update?

Step 1

MAKE A BACKUP. If you are at all unsure of how to make a backup or unsure if your backup works properly, please contact our support department before proceeding! If an update fails to work properly, your data could be severely compromised! For more information on making backups, click here.


Step 2

Make sure all users have exited out of PracticePerfect.


Step 3

Make sure all backup software has been suspended, specifically software such as CARBONITE. Leaving Carbonite operational WILL cause update issues.


Step 4

The update must be installed on your server and each workstation. Click here to download, SAVE and install the update. If available, right-click and select RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR. Otherwise, select to either RUN or OPEN the file. By downloading this update, you have acknowledged that you have a good-integrity backup of your PracticePerfect data.


Step 5

Once the installation program begins, you will be asked to either UPGRADE or CANCEL. To continue, click on UPGRADE and the process will begin. Please note, this process can take some time to complete - please be patient and do not interrupt the process even if a non-responding message appears. If you have any concerns during the installation, please call our support department. Do not try to run the update a second time.
