OptSuite is fully based on Java so you’ll need to download and install a Java Runtine Environment or a Java SDK.

• Get Java from http://java.sun.com (best you get the J2EE 5 SDK
• Install it on your somewhere on computer (I choose C:\Programme\Java\sdk)
• It might be neccessary to change the system variables Path and JAVA_HOME. Add something like C:\Programme\Java\sdk\jdk\bin to your Path variable and set JAVA_HOME to something like c:\Programme\Java\sdk\jdk
• To test your java installation open a dos box and type java, if the command is found, your installation is correct.

OptSuite is released as compressed archieves (tar.gz) and made available through the sourceforge file release system. Visit sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php to get the newest release of OptSuite.

Now simply unpack the contents of your release to a folder of your choice.
