I've found that it helps to right-click and choose "Run As Administrator" on my machine (which is Win7, 64 bit)

Without this, the installation was failing.

In a sure sign of the Apocalypse....we got licenses for RDp 8.5... :)

A handful of developers will be installing the product, some of new
Win 7 PCs, others on WinXP PCs that already have WDSCi 7.0...

Are there any tips/tricks we should know about? Or does anybody have
any links to such tips/tricks?

For example, I know if I want to keep my WDSCi 7 install intact, I
should copy my workspace and migrate the copy as opposed to the
original.

Also, I seem to recall some recomendations, especially for Win 7, was
to install into some other directory other than the default Program
Files....but I believe that was mainly if you didn't have local admin
on your PC???

There's surprising little information about actually installing the
product in the infocenter?
