Installing Eyore
- You can download the latest version of Eyore from http://www.cybersprocket.com/eyore/download/new/
The downloadable files are the same for the trialware and fully licensed version.

If you do NOT have the Microsoft .Net Framework installed (see step 3 above), you will be notified during the setup process.
The install program will create a "Cyber Sprocket Labs" directory on your PC where the program files will be installed. A shortcut to the program will appear on your desktop and in your programs menu under the "Cyber Sprocket Labs" folder.
Running Eyore
Double click the Eyore icon on your desktop, or select the Eyore program from your programs menu to start using Eyore.
Licensing Eyore
Trial Version
The trial version can be downloaded for free from various sources and used as "nagware" without installing a license. To remove the reminders you must purchase a license.
Licensed Version
When you purchase Eyore you will receive a license file via email. If you have a spam or virus filter, please check your spam folders if you did not receive your license file.
To license Eyore:
- Save the license to your desktop
- Open your email that contains the license file
- Use the "save attachment" command from your email program
- Save the license file onto your desktop
- Start Eyore
- Click the Settings tab
- Enter your email address in the email box
- Drag the license file into the "drag license here" box next to your email address
- The email and product ID box will turn green indicating a valid license has been installed
- Click Save
Microsoft .Net Framework
If you are using an older PC you may need to download and install the Microsoft .Net Framework before you can use Eyore.
Most newer systems, especially those running Windows XP or Vista will not need to install the Framework as it is a standard part of the operating system.
