SOLSA V5.1.14 Installation Instructions

SSL Live V5.1.14 SOLSA Update Instructions
Introduction
The SSL Off/On-Line Setup Application, or SOLSA, allows creation and editing of Live console Showfiles on your laptop, desktop, or tablet PC.
Almost anything that can be done on a console can be manipulated and configured `offline' when access to a console is not possible. SOLSA also includes the ability to remotely control a console, giving real time access to all audio processing parameters. Connection is via Ethernet or, with the addition of a wireless router or access point, via Wi-Fi. Instructions on how to connect SOLSA to a console are described in the SSL Live Help System:

Following Microsoft advice for apps within Windows 10 there are some changes to the installer; no automatic Desktop shortcut, no version numbers in Start Menu shortcuts, no Start Menu shortcuts to the uninstallers.
Requirements
Note that it is no longer necessary to have an active internet connection to authenticate a first time SOLSA installation on a computer.
Supported Operating Systems Microsoft Windows 10 64-bit or Windows 11 operating system. Installations of the Windows operating systems listed above may be run on Intel-based Apple Mac computers using a multi-boot utility such as Bootcamp or virtual environments such as Parallels. The hardware requirements listed below still apply to these environments.
Note that the Windows Data Protection API implementation means a new installation of Windows on the same PC will not be able to decrypt data from a previous install. For example, DDM or SNMP passwords will need to be input again after Windows reinstallation.
Windows 7 Support Microsoft ended support for Windows 7 in January 2020. SOLSA will continue to be supported on Windows 8.1 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit.

Troubleshooting
Starting the Application for the First Time When launching, if presented with a Windows User Account Control prompt, click Yes to proceed. SOLSA Slow to Start or Does Not Start at All Ensure you have met the minimum system requirements listed at the beginning of this document. A 64-bit version of Windows and 16 GB RAM is required to run SOLSA. If you are running SOLSA under a Windows virtual machine (e.g. Parallels or VMware Fusion) please ensure you have allocated sufficient resources to the virtual machine. Confirm Windows System Specifications In Windows, open the Run dialog (Windows key + R), type "control system" (or right-click on the Windows start icon and select "System" if running Windows 10) and click OK. This will open the System window, in which information about your computer can be found. Ensure that your system information meets the minimum recommended requirements for SOLSA. Below is an example of what you should see on a Windows 10 installation:
