Notes:

    This is only an upgrade. You must already have ArtWorks installed.

    ArtWorks entered 'Retirement' phase in March 2010. See here for details.

Important:

We strongly recommend that you have a current backup of your data before doing any software upgrade. You can backup the ArtWorks data to a
hard disk or USB disk via the inbuilt 'Backup Data' option (under the 'Tools' menu). To backup to a CD use your CD burner and copy the complete
C:\Program Files\ArtWorks folder, along with its sub-folder(s).
