Cabrillo Evaluator Hints / FAQs
Q: When I downloaded the CabEvaluator installation file and ran it, another software package was opened for installation - maybe the last program that was installed. I am using the FireFox browser. Why?
A: When downloading files, try setting the browser option to `download in the browser window` and then select File > Save As and know the path/folder that you are saving it to.

If you are using a browser other than IE (ex: FireFox, Mozilla etc.) this can happen - this is a browser setup problem. The browser puts download files in a default folder and runs the default {setup.exe} file. Be specific when you download and run installation files - know where you save the file and know how to run it from that path/folder.

I saw this web page that may help change the setup in FireFox for example.

Q: CabEval does not open under Vista OS, instead `The requested operation requires elevation` message is displayed. Why?
A: You may need to right-click the executable and select "Run as Administrator" explicitly. Even though your account is an administrator, by default Windows Vista UAC will not run some programs under the administrator account for security. Read more about UAC.

Q: I downloaded the latest revision file and extracted the files, but I still have a previous version - Why?
A: The default folder to Cabrillo Evaluator is c:\CabEvaluator, but you may have installed it elsewhere. So, if you extracted the update files to the correct folder, you may have a version problem.

The new OS`s save temporary Internet download files/web pages so they can be re-used for faster screen displays, which unfortunately may re-use the older CabEval update file as well. In Internet Explorer`s Tools, Internet Options menu - delete all the temporary files.

If necessary: Do Start, Search, For files and folders, select the option to search `Hidden` files and folders - look for the update file. Delete all instances. Then download the new file from my web site.
The temporary download files are normally stored in the c:\windows(or c:\winnt)\Temporary Internet Files folder. Trash the update files.

Also - Using a desktop shortcut that you made by dragging the .exe to the desktop can certainly cause this problem. Make a proper shortcut.

As always, please ask me if you have any questions about my software.
