Version 5.1.100 - May 1, 2009

New EMD build for Windows Vista. This version is only available for Vista operating systems.

There are differences in the Vista installation over the normal installation, primary the program folders. If you already updated your regular build and are able to use EMD effectively, you DO NOT NEED the latest Vista installation, you can just carry on. But if you are new to installing EMD and are on any flavor of Windows Vista, use the Vista download button.

If you want to use the Vista build, but already have EMD 5.0.140 or earlier installed, you can uninstall that version then download and install the Vista build. If you want to preserve your existing campaigns, go to C:\Program Files\EmailMarketingDirector\ and find the Content folder, the campaign.sto file and the campaignlists.sto file and save them to a safe directory like your Desktop.

Once you install the Vista build, move those to the C:\ProgramData\EmailMarketingDirector folder. The programdata folder is typically hidden, so make sure you select the show hidden folders option.
