Making sure you have the latest release
If you already have a version of WinQTLCart
on your PC:
- Open
your version of WinQTLCart, select Help>About WinQTLCart and
check the software release date that is displayed in the panel.
- If the
release date at the top of this page (or in the Download box above) is
more recent than that displayed in your version, then double-click
WQtlSetup.exe in the Download box to download the latest release.
- Upgrading
to a new version of WinQTLCart does not overwrite your working
files. However, the upgrade will replace the sample files that are
part of the WinQTLCart distribution.
Installing
To install, double-click the WQtlSetup.exe file in the Download box
above and follow the prompts. The default install directory is C:\NCSU\WinQTLCart,
but you can specify a different directory.
The installer places a shortcut to the Windows QTL Cartographer
program on your PC's Desktop, labeled WinQTLCart. Double-click the icon
to run the program.
Upgrading
If you have a prior version of WinQTLCart already on your PC,
simply run the installer program. It will update the necessary program
files in the WinQTLCart directory. Upgrading to a new version of
WinQTLCart does not overwrite your working files. However, the upgrade
will replace the sample files that are part of the WinQTLCart
distribution.
