Notes:

We recommend that all users upgrade to this latest version.

How to apply upgrade:

To upgrade from a previous Policy Patrol 5 version follow the next steps:

  1. Download the complete Policy Patrol installation from http://www.policypatrol.com/files/policypatrol.exe.
  2. Double-click on policypatrol.exe.
  3. The installation will detect that a previous version already exists and will ask whether you wish to perform the upgrade. Select Yes.
  4. A dialog will pop up asking you to click Next to complete the installation. The installation will need to restart Internet Information Services. Click Next to continue.
  5. When the installation complete dialog pops up, click Finish.

There is no need to reboot your machine and your existing configuration will remain intact. The upgrade does require a restart of Internet Information Services which is done automatically after clicking ‘Next’ in the Welcome screen (see point 4 above).

Note: If you have a clustered installation, please follow the instructions above on each clustered node. The upgrade will require one or more restarts of Internet Information Services which can affect cluster availability.

How can I check which version I have installed:

In the Policy Patrol Administration console, select Help > About from the menu.
