   Start the installation as an administrator, to be able to install the shortcuts.

   Example: Full installation path

   C:\Program Files\Nexus\Certificate Manager\clients

   Warning

   If a CM server is already installed on this computer, the client installation must not be made to the same directory.

3. Confirm the path.

4. Enter the full path for the configuration files and click OK in the first dialog box, for example:

   Example: Full configuration file path

   C:\Program Files\Nexus\Certificate Manager\clients

1. Await a message from the installation program confirming a successful installation. If an error message occurs, correct the indicated error and restart the installation using the bat file setup.bat located in the directory <install_root>\install.
