SSW Installation under Windows
The function of the WWW SSW installation FORM and procedure has now been extended to Windows (95/98/NT) systems. Use the SSW installation FORM to prototype/define your desired SolarSoft (SSW) configurations. Submitting the FORM will now generate a customized ZIP installation package for any desired set of SSW instruments, missions and packages. Note: To install SolarSoft you will need a zip file utility (e.g. WinZip) for uncompressing files - if you do not, please install one before proceeding.

Instructions on updating an SSW installation under Windows are given in SSW Upgrades. Note: To make an upgrade, you will need Perl - please install Perl on your PC if you have not already done so.

This is based on recent SSW/HESSI -> Windows installation work by Merrick Berg of the HESSI team.
