Updating IBM Process Designer

After you update your Process Center with a fix pack, refresh pack, or interim fix, you must update Process Designer to the same level. To do so, download the Process Designer file again and run the installation. Only the fixes or changes will be applied.

1. Uninstall the current instance of Process Designer by using Installation Manager or the Uninstall icon on the Start menu.
2. Open Process Center.
3. Click the IBM® Process Designer Download option. When you are prompted, save the IBM Process Designer.zip file to your file system. This file contains everything that you need to install and run Process Designer. Depending on your network connection, the download may take several minutes to complete.
4. Extract the contents of the IBM Process Designer.zip file to a temporary directory on your file system.
5. Open a command window and change to the directory where you extracted the contents of the IBM Process Designer.zip file.
   Important: If you are running Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2008, start your command prompt by right-clicking and selecting Run as administrator.
6. Run one of the following commands to update Process Designer. Use the same command that you used to install Process Designer.
