This is the PicoQuant TimeHarp 260 software pack.
It may be distributed on CD/DVD or as a zip file via download.
In case of a zip file, please unpack it to a temporary hard disk location. 

The folder "installation" contains the setup files.
You can run setup.exe directly from this folder on the CD or hard disk.
The setup program also installs the device driver for the TimeHarp 260. 

The TimeHarp 260 software is suitable for Windows 8.1 and 10. Dependent on 
your version/configuration of Windows you may need to log on as administrator
in order to perform the software setup. It is important to perform the setup 
as administator because otherwise the device driver installation will fail.
If you intend to use the software without hardware, e.g. as a file viewer, 
you may run setup without administrator rights.

In your chosen installation folder Setup will create a subfolder FILEDEMO 
which contains demo source code for accessing the TimeHarp 260 data files 
from various programming languages.

To uninstall the software you may need to log on as administrator 
(dependent on your version of Windows). Backup your measurement data.
From the start menu select:  PicoQuant - TimeHarp 260 v.x.x  >  uninstall.
Alternatively you can use the Control Panel Wizard 'Add/Remove Programs'
(in some Windows versions this Wizard is called 'Software')
