Installing The Software - NICEIC

This article will help you to install the NICEIC Cert Software. The Server installer will be required if this is the first installation either on a server or on a standalone machine. If you need to install the software on multiple machines, follow the below first and then refer to our Client install article.

You should receive an email with all the details you need to install the software. If you have not received this email or you require the new installers, please contact our support team.

The first thing to do is click the download installer link, once downloaded you can run the installer by double-clicking on the NICEIC Icon in your “Downloads” folder.

You will get a splash screen as below. Click ‘Next’.

You will be prompted to agree to our terms and conditions, please read and click ‘I Agree’ if you’re happy to continue.

You will then get the opportunity to choose the destination folder for the software. Once the correct destination has been selected, click ‘Install’. The install will complete.

Click ‘Finish’ at the end.

You can then open the software by selecting the desktop icon.

You will then be greeted by the setup screen.

Here, we have selected the most common options by default but if you wish to change or view them, you can click ‘Advanced options’ to explore other settings for the installation.

Click ‘Next’ when you are happy with the selection.

The setup will then be completed. To view the log of changes made, click on ‘View Log’. Select ‘Next’.

Your networking passcode will then appear. This will be required if you need to connect another machine to this server. Click on ‘Copy Passcode’ to later use it for the client installation. Click ‘Finish’ to complete the process.

You will then need to log on. You can use the default ‘Admin’ user to get logged in for the first time. The password for this can be found in your installation email. If you are having trouble locating this, please get in touch.

You will then need to register the software and set up the Client install if you require the software on multiple machines. If you are unsure which installers you need, please get in touch.
