# Double click '''UniServer5_*.exe'''. It's a self-extracting archive and unpacks to the current folder (where you saved the file).<br />''Note'': The exe '''does not''' install anything to the registry or other areas of a PC. It just creates folder UniServer and extracts all folders and files to this folder.

==== Run as a Service (Vista and W7) ====
==== Method 1 ====
The simplest way of getting UniServer up and working on Windows 7 and I presume the same will apply for Vista is by doing as follows.
# Go to folder '''UniServer''' folder.
# Right click on '''Start.exe''' and select '''Run as administrator'''.
# Right click on the system tray icon '''UniTray''' and select Install and run all services.
After a couple of seconds Apache and Mysql should now run as expected.
==== Method 2 ====
If you really want to be lazy and are happy to always grant UniServer '''Run as administrator''' privileges then use the following method:
# In folder UniServer right click on '''Start.exe''' and choose '''Properties'''
# Click the '''compatibility tab'''.
# Tick the box '''Run this program as administrator'''.
Now in future you can just run '''Start.exe''' as normal by double clicking it and it will always automatically be run as an administrator.
'''''Note'':''' You only need to perform the above if you want to install Apache and MySQL as a service.
If you want to just use them as a normal program then there is no issue and you don't need to run as administrator, you can just choose to run them as standard programs by left clicking on the system tray icon (UniTray) and selecting 'Start Uniserver'.
