Use the Advanced installation option when the Typical option does not apply. For example if you want to control the installation of specific P6 Professional components, such as Visualizer and the P6 Professional Database Tools.
To install P6 Professional Standalone with the Advanced option:
- Download and extract the media zip file locally to the client computer.
- In the extracted media zip file, in the Client_Applications folder, double-click P6ProfessionalSetup.exe to launch the installation wizard.
Note: Microsoft .NET Framework and Windows Installer are required to run P6 Professional. If they are not installed, follow the prompts to install them and then restart your computer as needed. Allow P6ProfessionalSetup.exe to run when your computer restarts and follow the prompts to complete installation of the required components.
- Select the Advanced option.
- Click OK.
- Select the options to be installed.
- Click Next.
Click Install.
- Click OK to automatically run Database Configuration immediately after installation. See Running Database Configuration After Installation for details.
Note: You do not need to run Database Configuration immediately after installation, however you do need to run it before you can use P6 Professional. You can run Database Configuration manually at any time. See Running Database Configuration Manually for details.
