You can reinstall the Windows client software at any time, for example, when you wish to upgrade the software, either from disk or from the server.
To do this, run the Setup program as before, using the instructions in Installing Windows Client Software Using the Setup Program or Installing Windows Client Software from the Command Line.
If you are reinstalling the Windows Client software in silent mode (as described in Installing Windows Client Software from the Command Line), you may need to restart the computer to complete the installation. This is because some of the program files may be in use during the installation process (for example if the Windows Client is running), and so cannot be replaced by the new files. In this case, the new files are copied to a temporary directory, and will be moved into place automatically when the computer is next restarted.
To check whether you need to restart the computer, use a text editor such as Notepad to view the contents of the installation log file when the installation process has completed. The installation log file is called setup.log and is created in the directory from which you run the Setup program, unless you use the command-line option to specify a different path and filename.
At the end of the file, under the heading Response Result, the text Result Code should be followed by one of the two values 0 (zero) or -12. If the value is 0, there is no need to restart the computer; if the value is -12, restart the computer before attempting to use the Windows Client.
