Launching the PTC Solution Installer
The PTC Solution Installer (PSI) is a dynamic installer that offers different installation options based upon the products and features you select.
Use these instructions to install your PTC solutions. To start installation:
1. Insert the PTC Solution Installer CD.
* 
Do not run the installer from a windchill shell as the service pack may have updates to the windchill command code. Instead, be sure to modify the system PATH variable to include the path to your installed SDK bin directory before running the setup file.
2. From your CD drive, enter the following command:
Windows
setup.vbs
UNIX
setup
3. Select the language to be used during the installation process, and accept the License Agreement if you are legally entitled to do so.
4. Select New Product Installation and click Next.
At this point you may now begin to install your Windchill solutions and optional products.
