Updating Third-Party Products
Third-party products are on various DVDs. The PTC Solution Installer requests the DVDs it needs for updating any components you choose to update. For detailed instructions on how to update third-party products refer to their installation documentation. Any additional configurations that are needed to make these products work with Windchill are provided in this guide.
When you are updating an existing Windchill system, update only those third-party products that you are using in your Windchill system.
If you are installing a new Windchill system, use the latest Windchill Third Party Software DVDs shipped with Windchill.

It is very common that third-party products are installed on multiple systems. Be sure to update the products on all systems where they are used.
Some third-party products, require you to uninstall the third-party product before updating your Windchill solution using the PTC Solution Installer. To determine if there is an update to the third-party component, verify the supported version of that component in the Release Calendar and clicking on the View matrix page. If the supported version of the third-party product is the same as your current version, you do not need to uninstall your third-party product and may continue to update your Windchill solution.
