When the installation Welcome window pops up, click the Next button, then the Accept button and then three Next buttons.

Note that there are five screens in this step.

If you are running Windows Vista, uncheck the "Run The Trade Center" checkbox.

If you are running Vista, double Click the new "The Trade Center" icon on the desktop to start the Trade Center and run the QuickStart Wizard. Otherwise, just follow the QuickStart Wizard instructions that pop up automatically.

Click Next and follow the instructions on each new window.

Once you arrive at the following screen, you must click the "Check for Software Updates" to continue.

The following screen shows items that can be installed. No updates are available. Just click the Next button.

At this point, you are finished. Click the Finish button.

If you are running Windows Vista, and you forgot to uncheck the "Run The Trade Center" checkbox on the last page of the installation process, the Trade Center may start up without the list of default portfolios filled with stock tickers. If this is the case, go to File->Open and select the TradeCenter.stks file in your "Documents\My Trade Center Portfolios" folder.
