LaunchPad is small and discrete software that does not require many installation steps.
Begin the installation process by downloading the LaunchPad install.jar file from our site here: http://www.uneefide.com
NOTE: The installation dialogs are not exactly the same on all Operating Systems. If your messages are slightly different, choose the option that most resembles the one described in this document.
Click on the yellow Download LaunchPad button on the web page. You should see the following dialog box:
Click the Run button. This should bring up a dialog that details the download progress. You will need to wait until the download is completed to begin the next step. The download will take between 30 seconds and a few minutes, depending on the speed of your internet connection.
NOTE: If the Run button is not available, or if you wish to install at a later time, you can click the Save button. You can then save the install file to the location of your choice. When you are ready to proceed with with the installation process, double-click the install file and the installation will continue as described below.
Once the software has finished downloading, the installer will automatically launch. It will begin by checking your system to see if the correct version of Java is installed. If Java is not installed or the correct version is not found, LaunchPad will display the following dialog:

Follow the prompts to complete the Java installation. If you need assistance, please consult the Java support website: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/index.xml
NOTE: Java MUST be installed for LaunchPad installation to continue. If you choose not to install Java, you will not be able to install LaunchPad.
If you wish to install Java on your own, instead of going through LaunchPad,
you can do so by going to the following website directly and following the
