Installing Prism Software
The Prism software requires the C++ Runtime to run, .net Framework 4.8 for HealthCheck, and will be installed with Prism.
If you are upgrading from a previous version Prism, applications that are already installed will be upgraded, if you wish to remove one of the applications please do so from the Programs and Features option in Control Panel. It is not possible to install two different versions of Prism software at the same time.
Note: It is recommended for Prism Player 1.0 only to uninstall the program before running the new Player installer.
It is not possible to install older versions of Prism software if later versions are already installed. In such situations, please uninstall all the Prism software and associated applications following the instructions below and then reboot before continuing with the installation.
After the software has been installed, Prism requires a hardware AvoKey to be connected before the application can be used. If the software does not recognise the AvoKey, a message will be displayed ‘No valid Prism license Found’.
Prism Player installs a software license, so there is no need to plug in an AvoKey, however you will need to be on an active internet connection for the license to automatically install.
