Install Installing EVOLUTION is quite simple. You may start by downloading the latest version. If a previous version of EVOLUTION is present, you will need to uninstall it using the usual Windows procedure. Don’t worry; all your current configurations will be preserved. Unzip the EVOLUTION Setup 3_x_yy.zip file. Then run setup.exe. Activate Activating EVOLUTION enables the exchange of data with the instruments. By acquiring a User License, you can activate EVOLUTION on a single computer, the onboard computer. Yet, it is NOT necessary to activate EVOLUTION on other computers to download forecasts, review races, create courses, manage waypoints, etc. Use the following instructions for the activation: Run EVOLUTION. Wait a few seconds, then check the folder Documents\\My EVOLUTION; you will find a file with an extension “.req”, for example, evolution_0EKGASJ.req Copy and send the .req file to support@evolution-tactic.com We will send you back a file with a “.lic” extension, for instance, evolution_0EKGASJ‑0EKGAW8.lic Copy the “.lic” file to the “My EVOLUTION” folder. Rerun EVOLUTION to complete the activation. Once done, this procedure deletes the “. lic” file from the My EVOLUTION folder. Please, do not rename, open, or alter the content of the “.req” and “.lic” files; otherwise, the activation will fail.  Please make a backup copy of both files; you may need them again if a complete re-installation of Windows and EVOLUTION on the same computer.
