G-Ware Switcher

G-Ware Switcher allows you to alternate between different G-Ware software versions that are installed on the same PC.

For example, if you need to upgrade the firmware on your ClearOne unit(s), G-Ware Switcher allows you to easily switch to an earlier version of G-Ware (such as 3.5), save the site files, and then switch to a later version (4.5) to upgrade the firmware.

Prior to the 4.5 release, the older version of G-Ware had to be removed before the new version could be installed.

Before using G-Ware Switcher

1.Load G-Ware 3.5 in a unique directory (path), as shown in Figure 5.14. Do not select “Add Icon to Desktop”when you are asked if you want to do so during the installation process.

2.Load G-Ware 4.5 in a unique directory (path), as shown in Figure 5.15. Do not select “Add Icon to Desktop”when you are asked if you want to do so during the installation process.

You are now ready to use G-Ware Switcher.
