Windows Application Installation

Asrosoft applications are not code signed. Google 'windows code signing cost' if you'd like to know why.

Consequently, if they were installed using a conventional installation process, the Windows Defender would block the application when it was run, and if it tried to save it's own data in the Windows Documents folder, as applications are recommended to do, Defender would then block the applicaiton because the Documents folder is a controlled folder.

For that reason, Asrosoft applications are distributed as a zip file, and they are configured to only access data within the folder in which they are installed.

So, download the application .zip file, and copy the downloaded .zip file to a folder you create. C:\Apps would be our suggestion. Then right-click the zip file and select 'Extract All...' from the pop-up menu. Just accept the defaults for it to create a sub-folder.

To run the application, locate the cashflow.exe file in the sub-folder. You can double-click the file name to start the program.

If you wish, you could right-click the cashflow.exe file and select 'Create shortcut'. That will create a shortcut file that you can copy and paste to your desktop, so that you can run the application from the shortcut on the desktop.

The startup configuration of the application is controlled by a file in the data/flutter_assets/assets/text sub-folder. The defaults.json can be set to make the appl;ication create and use it's data files in the Windows Documents folder. See the defaults.txt file for further information.
