Pre-Release Software - 5.4.2

 

Notice

The products on this page are made available for APPX customers and resellers who wish to experiment with the latest versions prior to their official release. These should be considered as "beta release" software, with no warranty expressed or implied. Therefore, APPX Software, Inc. recommends that these versions not be installed in live, production systems, but rather in self-contained test environments. We greatly appreciate any feedback that testers can provide.

General Instructions

Installation of APPX 5.4 is accomplished through the APPX Installer, downloadable through the links provided below. It is highly recommended that the Installation Instructions be followed precisely in order to accomplish a complete and correct installation.

An APPX Version 5 License Key (registration) is required. Supported customers who do not already have a Version 5 License should contact their APPX Resellers or APPX Software, Inc., to obtain a new License Key at no charge.

NOTE: Upgrading from earlier versions of APPX (version 4.x) requires the use of the Upgrade Utility provided below, before installation of APPX 5.4. The upgrade utility is designed for APPX Release 4.2.a only, and must be installed in that version. If you are running an earlier version of APPX, please go to the download page for your platform, navigate to the "Prior Releases" link at the bottom of that page, and download and install APPX 4.2.a before proceeding with the upgrade to APPX 5.2.

FOR THOSE UPGRADING FROM APPX 5.0.0, 5.0.1, OR APPX 5.0.2, please see the special instructions here.
