  1. Save the download file (for example, fds1w_verxxx_eng.zip where "xxx" is the version number) to a folder on your computer.
  2. Extract the files in the downloaded zip file to a folder on your computer.
  3. Double-click the exe file (for example, setup_eng.exe) in the files extracted in step 1. The install program will start automatically.
