Uninstall/Install Updated installer

Post by newtie » Tue Jun 20, 2017 5:17 pm

Hi all-

I just rec'd the notification thru MVRAMS that an update is available.

There a yellow warning at the bottom that says uninstall first/select sim?

Is that done thru this window concurrently with the new install, or do I install over the existing one?

Thanks,
Mark

It's always recommended to uninstall and then reinstall.

Did the Beaver uninstall, went fine.

Wrecked MVRAMS. Beaver and F100 used to be available as selections; F100 load out screen now shows up (only). How do I reinstall this?

Do I have to re-download updates every time something like this happens?

Thanks,
Mark

No... most times it will be on the updater.

So it's not working?

Did you disable AV?

Not working.

No AV installed on this computer.

My question is how to reinstall MVAMS.

I'm assuming that it originally came with the download link?

You'll need to disable defender. It's installed automatically.

Mvams should be on your desktop. If it's not, uninstall and reinstall.

The Beaver. MVAMS is part of the installer package.
