Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I install Micro Estimating on a User's computer?
Please follow these steps to get a user’s machine setup on Micro Estimating:
  1. Connect the user to Micro Estimating’s data location. Most companies with multiple users do this by mapping a network drive to Micro Estimating’s main folder. Its default location is C:\MSEWIN. For this example, assume that location is mapped to the users M: drive.
  2. Open the Program/CLIENT folder and run setup.exe as administrator. (This would be M:\Program\CLIENT\setup.exe in the example). Run this from its network location. Do not copy this to another drive and run it from there as it looks at its current location to find the relevant configuration files to setup the user.
