For current Aeon Client users who have administrator privileges on their home machines

1. Once the Aeon Server has been successfully updated, click the Aeon logo on your desktop. You will receive a client/server mismatch message indicating the current installation (4.1) is lower than the server (5.0.3). 
   
2. Click yes to run the updater. You will see the Aeon screen download the updater.
    
3. Once the update has downloaded, click through the Aeon Client Setup dialog. Leave the “Complete” option selected on the Select Setup Method screen, then confirm the install on the next page. 
   
4. A green bar will display the progress of the update.
   
5. Once setup is complete, click OK to exit the wizard.

If you are not able to complete the installation or if you have any problems, please contact support@atlas-sys.com to request information to download the Aeon Client Installer. You will be provided with a secure link pointing you to the Aeon Downloads page and credentials to use to download the client installer. The installation steps are the same as above, but you will launch the installer from an executable (.exe) file rather than by clicking the client on your desktop.
