Installing OfficeStatus Windows Client > Windows Client Installation Overview

The OfficeStatus Windows Client installation package is primarily responsible for copying files to the user's computer and creating associated shortcuts.

Note that the OfficeStatus Windows Client installer includes two important software prerequisites (you do not have to manage these separately):

1.	Microsoft Windows Installer version 3.x

2.	Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0

These components will be installed automatically if they don't already exist on the host computer. Note that if the installation of Windows Installer 3.x is required, the installer will usually need to reboot the host computer before it can proceed with the remaining component installation steps. This entire process will be handled by the installer - you will be prompted to reboot, and installation will resume automatically afterward.

Note: The installation of the .NET Framework 2.0 pre-requisite can take a while, particularly on slower workstations. Please be patient during this step.
