CARA

Cara with Windows Vista
Cara is now a discontinued product. Due to its age Cara is not certified to run with Windows Vista.

However our experience is that Cara does run with Vista (see guidance below). Miccant cannot provide any support should you choose to run Cara with Vista and Miccant makes no guarantees that your copy of Cara will run correctly with Vista.

Only Cara Pro v1.4 and v1.4r5 will run with Vista. Older versions of Cara that require the use of a parallel port dongle do not work with Vista.

Install and activate Cara in the usual way (see below if you've forgotten what to do). The first time you run Cara you may receive a warning dialog that quotes error number -1005. This is because Cara must be allowed to run in 'adminstrator mode'. Vista will offer to re-start Cara with Adminstrator Privilege - you should take this option.
