Preliminary Installation Instructions

Please carefully read all of the installation instructions on this page before you perform any steps.

Before installing Nero, you might find it helpful to print this page. (If you're installing from the Nero 7.10.1.0 Ultra Edition executable from me, you can print, instead, the text document that comes with that executable. That text document contains essentially the same information as does this page.)

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or problems.    Back to menu


Install Nero

To install Nero, do the following:

  1. If you already have any version of Nero on your computer, completely uninstall it before reinstalling Nero. (However, if you have a full version of Nero that successfully burns all the discs that you want to burn, then it's fine to keep that program instead of installing another.)

  2. In Windows, navigate to the program file that you downloaded. (If you're installing the Nero 7.10.1.0 Ultra Edition executable from me, click on Nero-7.10.1.0_eng_full.exe).

  3. Be patient while the installation wizard is extracted.

  4. At the Nero Ask Toolbar window, select Install Nero without the Ask Toolbar.

  5. If there's still a checkmark in the box Make Ask my default browser search, uncheck that box.

  6. IMPORTANT: when the installation process brings you to a page that asks you if you want Nero to be the default program or player to open the file types listed, do the following two things. Nero is well worth having, but if you don't uncheck the boxes below during the installation process, you'll find (after the installation) that flaming, orange or red Nero icons will replace the file-type icons for many files types that you have on your computer:

    1. Uncheck all the checkmarks under each of the three or four tabs Photos, Video, and Music (and Previews if there is a Previews tab). Be sure to click on each of those tabs to see the checkmarked boxes under each. There may be a button to uncheck at once all of the checkmarks under a given tab.

    2. You can leave the checkmarks under the Options tab.

  7. Click Next, and continue though the installation wizard's steps, one by one.

  8. If you get a message that you need to first uninstall an earlier version of Nero, close out of the installation, and remove your old Nero via Add or Remove Programs. If Nero doesn't install properly after that, you might want to uninstall again and then run a Nero clean tool, which you can download from the following page:
    http://www.nero.com/eng/downloads-cleantools.html

  9. During the installation process, use the serial number that came with your purchase of Nero. (If you're installing the Nero 7.10.1.0 Ultra Edition executable from me, when the installation process brings you to a page that shows a serial number, delete that serial number, and enter the serial number that came with your purchase of Nero. The old serial number has been deactivated and will not work.)

  10. Proceed through all the installation wizard's steps, and when you get to the last one, click on the Finish button.

  11. After you click on the Finish button, restart your computer to completely install all components.    Back to menu


Install the Nero Help Files

After you install Nero and reboot, install the Nero help files so that, when you click on help (the question mark icon) in an area of Nero, you can see the help content for that area. (After installing the help files, to see the help topics in some areas, click on Help Topics after you click on the question mark.) To install the Nero help files, do the following:

    6. Click on your Nero folder to open it;
    7. Click on the Create New Folder Icon;
    8. Name your new folder something like Help Files for Nero;
    9. Click on your new folder to open it.
    10. In the File name slot, leave the default file name;
    11. Click on the Save button.
