Windows Vista considerations for Notes install, upgrade, and uninstall
When installing or uninstalling HCL Notes® on Vista with UAC ON, you must work as an administrative user.
About this task
When installing or upgrading Notes on a Windows™ Vista client, the UAC setting should be enabled (UAC ON) in the following situations:
- Notes single or multi-user install on Windows Vista on which there is currently no Notes installation
- Notes upgrade from an existing Notes install on Windows XP
Note: On Windows Vista, you cannot upgrade a Notes installation on Windows Vista that was installed with UAC turned OFF to a installation that has UAC turned ON. You must first uninstall Notes, set UAC ON, then run the Notes installation program.
Use one of these two options to enable the UAC ON security setting.
