G-Ware Switcher
The G-Ware Switcher utility, introduced with G-Ware version 4.5, allows you to
alternate between different G-Ware software versions that are installed on the
same PC.
For example, if you need to upgrade the firmware on your ClearOne unit(s),
G-Ware Switcher allows you to easily switch to an earlier version of G-Ware (such
as 3.5), save the site files, and then switch to a later version (such as 4.5) to
upgrade the firmware.
Prior to the 4.5 release, the older version of G-Ware had to be removed before the
new version could be installed. If you need to use multiple versions of G-Ware,
you must install them in different directories (folders) on your PC, or G-Ware
Switcher will not work.
Before Using G-Ware Switcher
1. Load G-Ware 3.5 in a unique directory (path), as shown in Figure 5.16. Do
not select “Add Icon to Desktop” when you are asked if you want to do so
during the installation process.
2. Load G-Ware 4.5 in a unique directory (path), as shown in Figure 5.17. Do
not select “Add Icon to Desktop” when you are asked if you want to do so
during the installation process.
You are now ready to use G-Ware Switcher.
