Download Full Installation

FULL INSTALLATION DOWNLOAD -- OrchidWiz Encyclopedia 20.A (this is the latest)

 

PLEASE READ BEFORE STARTING: the most important thing from the instructions below is, remember to unzip the zip file you downloaded before starting the installation.

The download of OrchidWiz Encyclopedia 20.A (with 265,000 images, totaling over 12 GB) can take from 10 minutes to a few hours, depending on the speed of your internet bandwidth.  Please make sure to read all the steps below before you start the process.

To download the Zip file containing the installation files, click the link below:

OrchidWiz Encyclopedia 20A  (PLEASE UNZIP THIS FILE TO EXTRACT ALL FILES BEFORE INSTALLING.  Not doing this is the most common error during the installation.)

If you look at the bottom left side of your browser, you should see the file being downloaded.  After the download finishes, click 20A_DISK1.zip.  It will open a new window showing the files contained inside.  Do not try to install immediately from this window or it will give you an error.  From the window header menu, click "Extract All" and then select "Extract."  This extracts all the files from the zip file and puts them in a folder you select (the default "Downloads" folder works fine).

The default location may be called Downloads\20A_DISK1.  Open that folder and double-click "Setup.exe" or "Setup."   If that doesn't start the installation, please double-click "OrchidWiz Encyclopedia 20.0."

A window might come up saying "Windows protected your PC."  Click "More info," and then click "Run anyway."  That should start the installation.

Note: you may want to copy the installation files from the folder 20A_DISK1 to a 16 GB USB drive to make installation of the second computer easier, or just to keep as a backup.
