If at any time during the installation you receive an error message about missing programs, you will find these in the folder "utilities" on the Installation CD. Please install these manually if required.

Make sure you are logged onto your PC as Administrator before starting with the installation.

FAQ'S

 

*Always deny permission if program asks to connect to internet

*During the installation I receive error message: - Cannot create file that already exists

Go to control panel and uninstall elsawin. Then browse to c:\elsawin and manually delete the folder. Reboot, then  re-install elsawin

*After entering the VIN number I receive the error from elsawin section barred!! - Please enter vehicle type, model,year and transmission and press OK

*Please note if you are advised that this is only the 30 DAY VERSION when program has been fully installed you have made an error when installing. PLEASE REINSTALL and follow each part carefully step by step. If the instructions are followed correctly the program will become fully open at the USER CONFIGURATION stage.

*Should you receive an error message when entering the name DO NOT send and email given on the installer

*Problem – Constantly Trying to connect to Internet -After entering details DO NOT press START QUERY – press OK ( top)

*Problem – Language is German even when English was selected – Make sure that you open the program ELSAWIN and not ELSAWIN ADMIN (this is only used at the installation stage) – Also make sure that you login with your own newly created username and password and not with 'admin' as username and password as this defaults to German – this is used only for installation purposes.

*PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU UNINSTALL ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF ELSAWIN BEFORE INSTALLING THIS VERSION
