Hi, I need help in installing the Xceed in an external drive... I installed it in an external drive because I want it to work in other PCs by putting all files in a portable external drive.

However, it does not work in other PCs.

I installed all its components in the G: Drive however I think there are still some files the installer installs in the C:\Windows or other paths in C:.

Can you help me in my problem? I want it all in G: or can you give me suggestions to make it work in other PCs without installing it all over again.

Hi peyton,

To make your experience with our components as painless as possible, we need to incorporate them in your development environment. There are registry entries, common files shared among our different products, documentation that needs to be installed and configured on the workstation.

You can of course copy the DLLs that you need on a shared drive and use them on the other development machines but you will have to integrate them yourself. Depending on which products your are working with (ActiveX or .NET), you might have some licensing issues, documentation will not be integrated (in case of .NET, you will not be able to even start the documentation without installing the package. ActiveX's documentation can be started by opening the .chm)

To make a long story short, the installer is not mandatory but it is strongly recommended to avoid painful workstation configuration.
