Installation (Windows Service)

Installation media

Get the latest version of the AVIX Server executable installer here: AVIX Community Site 

Look under "Latest release", the downloadable unit should be called:  "AVIX Server v5.1.X (64-bit).exe"  (where X=latest version)

upgrade notice

If the installation you are performing is an upgrade (i.e. you have already previously an AVIX Server of a previous version installed), settings files will be preserved. This means that system settings files saved either by an administrator or by the software itself during operation will be maintained. 

Installation

Double-click on the downloaded executable, to start the installation of the AVIX Server software.
