Installing Z-OptimiZr for File Servers

Z-OptimiZr for File Servers comes in two different MSI setup packages, a 32-bit package and a 64-bit package. We also provide an EXE setup package installing automatically the right version of Z-OptimiZr for File Servers (32-bit or 64-bit) based on the Windows version (32-bit or 64-bit) running on the target computer.


 
The ZOpt-FS-Setup.msi package is for Microsoft Windows 32 bits versions:
z-optimizr-for-file-server-msi-32-bit

The ZOpt-FS-64-Setup.msi package is for Microsoft Windows 64 bits versions:
z-optimizr-for-file-server-msi-64-bit

The ZOpt-FS-32-64-Setup.exe package can be run on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows versions:
z-optimizr-for-file-server-exe-setup-package-32-64-bit
