Installation Question

SUGGESTED
Posted By

I am a student using Sage 50 and am having trouble installing the data files. I have Sage 50 Installed on my computer, and am trying to install data in order to use the data on the program. The data is on a DVD that came with the Sage 50 textbook. when I try to install the data, a message comes up saying the data is installed and in my C drive. however, when I go to my C drive, the data is not there. Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

    Hi , 

    Thanks for reaching out. You may need to save the files on the DVD to your computer's C drive directly. See:

    When you launch Sage 50, right click the Sage 50 icon and select "run as administrator." This should launch a welcome screen similar to the one below. Depending on your backup format. If your backup file extension is .CAB select “Restore from backup”. OR If your backup folder has a .SAI file and .SAJ sub-folder with matching names choose the “select an existing company” option to locate the backup manually. Alternatively, if you have a sample company file open, then these options below are also available via the File menu.

    Warm regards,

    Erzsi
