2. If you plan to use XMI Import/Export, you must download and install the 32–bit version of Oracle Java 8 JRE or Amazon Coretto 8.x. Refer the Modeler Release Notes document for the supported versions.
3. To start a standard installation of Modeler, run the Modeler installation application PTCModelerx_xSetup.exe.

Installation of the Windows .NET Framework can take up to 10 minutes; during installation, the Cancel button on the dialog is not available.
On the Setup Type page, select the Client Only option.

5. After the installation is complete, perform the necessary post-installation tasks. For more information, see Post-Client Only installation tasks.
