Install a template package

The Template Installer Wizard guides you through the steps needed to install templates.

To install a template package:

1. Double-click the template package to launch the Template Installer Wizard.
2. On the Welcome screen, click Next.
3. Read the License Agreement, then select I accept the terms in the license agreement. Click Next.
4. Designate an installation directory for Working Papers. We suggest using the default directory. Click Next.
5. Enter or Browse for the location of your Working Papers and Template folders if they do not match the defaults. If you are updating or overwriting a template package, you have the option to back up your existing template and uninstall your existing template. Click Finish.

The template package is installed. You can access the template in Working Papers from File | Templates or Tools | Templates.

Note: The template version automatically updates to match the current version of Working Papers.

Silent installation

If you want to install a template package where monitoring and manual input is not required during the installation process, you can perform a silent installation.

First, you'll first need to create a Silentcwp.ini file. The Silentcwp.ini file contains a list of the desired responses a user would make during installation. By running this file, you can bypass the need for user input.

To create a Silentcwp.ini file:

1. From the Windows Start menu, launch Notepad.

2. Enter the required responses for your installation. See the Sample Silentcwp.ini file for proper formatting.

3. Click File | Save As.
4. Navigate to the folder containing the template package you want to install. In the File name field, enter Silentcwp.ini. In the Save as type drop-down menu, select All Files (*.*). Click Save.

The Silentcwp.ini file is created in your template package folder. You can now perform a silent installation.

To silently install a template package:

1. Ensure that the Silentcwp.ini file is in the same folder as the template package you want to install.
2. Double-click the template package to begin installation.
3. If you enabled the Confirmation page in the Silentcwp.ini file, click Close to complete the installation. If you disabled the Confirmation page, the installer will close automatically.

The template package is silently installed. Users can access the template in Working Papers from File | Templates or Tools | Templates.
