or netbook that meets the following system requirements.

Operating System—Windows XP (Service Pack 3), Windows Vista 32-bit, Windows Vista 64-bit
(Business or Ultimate), Windows 7 32-bit, Windows 7 64-bit.

Processor Speed—at least a single-core processor of 1.5 GHz processor.
examples: Intel Pentium 4.1.5GHz or AMD Athlon XP 1500+


Important! If you have a previous version of Xactimate already installed on your computer, it is critical that you
back up your data using the Data Transfer feature before updating to Xactimate version 27.5, even if you
have Multi-Version Install. (If you receive an error message during the data transfer process, resolve that
problem before updating to version 27.5.) The installation of Xactimate version 27.5 will overwrite previous
versions of Xactimate on the same computer. Any data that is not backed up beforehand will not be usable in
previous versions of Xactimate after it is upgraded to Xactimate version 27.5. After updating to Xactimate
version 27.5, you may need to manually retrieve some assignments from your previous version(s) of
Xactimate backup.

Xactimate Version 27.5 Installation Instructions

INTRODUCTION
This chapter walks you through the installation of Xactimate. It provides you with step-by-step instructions for
installing Xactimate on stand-alone computers. By following the instructions in this chapter, you should have
Xactimate installed and ready to use in no time at all.
NOTE REGARDING THE MULTI-VERSION INSTALL
Because it is common practice for service providers to work for multiple carrier companies at the same time,
multiple versions of Xactimate can now be installed on the same computer. When doing so, it is still critical
that you back up your data using Data Transfer before performing Multi-Version installs. Each version of
Xactimate will have its own icon and database, and it will be registered to display in the “Add or Remove
Programs” section of your operating system. Also, each version can be installed and uninstalled separately. If
you uninstall the standard version before uninstalling a Multi-Version of Xactimate, the Multi-Version program
will be inaccessible. We recommend you make a backup of your Multi-Version data before uninstalling the
standard release.
Attention! Some profiles are only available in specific versions of Xactimate. The data in these profiles will
only be available within the approved version. If you require multiple versions of Xactimate to run all your
profiles, you can order a Multi-Version Install by calling 1-800-424-9228.
Note: For network installations, see www.xactware.com/27. The following instructions are for stand-alone
computers (computers that do not share data with other computers) only.
Before installing Xactimate on your computer, it is critical that your computer meets the minimum system
requirements for Xactimate. These requirements are listed in “System Requirements” on page 1
