Installation Instructions

  1. The software should be installed locally; it is NOT network compatible.
  2. Locate the directory which contains the "HMDA (or CRA) DES 20XX Setup" installation package.
  3. Double-click on the installer to launch the wizard which will guide you through the installation process.

 

Note: To preserve your data when installing a newer release of the Data Entry Software, updates should be installed to the same location as the earlier release of the same year(e.g., CRA DES v. 2024 R.2 should be installed to the same location as CRA DES v. 2024).

If installing a new year release (e.g. you are installing CRA DES 2017 at the beginning of your reporting year), the software must be installed to a new, year-specific directory. (The software is configured to do this by default.)
