About QPM GUI

QPM GUI includes one main and one Preferences window where you can work with all Lycia components:

(1) In the upper-right corner of the QPM main window, you have three management buttons:

the Reset button resets Lycia components to their initial state
the Clean button cleans up redundant and orphaned files
the Preferences button opens the Preferences window

In the Preferences window, you can specify Lycia installation path and the repository credentials:

By default,

Lycia components available for installation are taken from this repository

http://lycia-repo.querix.com/querix-lycia-nt
Lycia is installed to

C:\Program Files\Querix\Lycia

You can change the installation path by direct typing or browsing:

The repository and its branch are changed by direct typing.

Technically, you can install Lycia to any place in your computer that you consider necessary and convenient. However, we strongly recommend you to follow default installation paths, because we will refer to them in this documentation. If you decided to choose another installation directory, avoid using special symbols like @, %, #, <, >, ", ! when creating folders. Otherwise, Lycia will fail to start.

(2) In the top left part of the QPM main window, you can choose one of the available Lycia setup presets – Development system, Runtime server, KMS server, and Custom (are described here).

(3) In the leftmost column, check / uncheck the components you want to install, update, or delete.

You can check the components one-by-one or select all of them by checking the checkbox in the table header.

If a component is unchecked, it will be deleted.

To uninstall Lycia, you must deselect (uncheck) all the installed components.

(4) In the Component column, all the available Lycia components are listed.

(5) In the Installed version column, there will be the following statuses:

the current version of the selected component if it is already installed;
none if the component is not installed;
to be installed if the component is selected for installation (it is checked);
will be removed if the component will be deleted (it is unchecked):

(6) In the Available version column, you see the latest version to which the selected component can possibly be updated.

(7) In the Description column, you see some basic information about the component based on which you can choose whether to install / update / delete it or not.

(8) With the Proceed button, you will launch the installation / update / uninstallation procedure.

(9) In the Status field, you see the current status and the progress of your installation / update as well as messages and warnings.

Attention: To specify Lycia components for installation / update, tick the boxes of all the components you want to keep.

If an installed component remains unchecked when you click the Proceed button, QPM will delete that component.
