This page explains how to install purchased and trial-mode Trapcode products.
Before beginning:
Close all resource-intensive programs. Make doubly sure all resource-intensive background programs are closed, especially the host program into which you're installing the Trapcode plug-in(s).
Be logged in as an administrator. The software will install plug-ins onto your system such that they will be accessible by all users. Doing so requires you to be logged in as an administrator.
If you are using current versions of our products, your software is already compatible. Simply update using the Maxon App.
Run the Maxon App to see if any of your products have an update available.
If this is the first time you’ve run the app, you may want to reset the configuration.
If there is an Update/Install button, click it and follow the instructions.
If there is no indication of an available update, you already have the most current version.
Installation: Confirm Administrative Credentials
The software is ready to install plug-ins and files onto your system. The installer will confirm that you have administrative privileges, then install all necessary files.
