New first-time users may need to navigate to the QMSCAPA data folder.

 

Of course, if you are installing QMSCAPA on a server or shared drive you will need to set the appropriate shared folder privileges for one or more users.

 

The default location for the QMSCAPA.EXE file is:

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\QMS\QMSCAPA

 

Note about the FIRST RUN option and the Path Manager window

If you move the QMSCAPA data folder you will need to reset the path for the QMSCAPA data folder from the Windows OS Command Prompt or a Windows Shortcut.
