Aqua Data Studio will automatically detect all of the settings
of your previous installation, including the license
information.

Aqua Data Studio appears in the Start > Programs list once
the installation completes.
Notice that there are two installations of Aqua Data Studio in
the screenshot below. This illustrates how it is possible to have a
current version and an older version installed. The two cannot be
run simulataneously.
Launching from the
command line
Once it is installed, it can also be launched from the command
line, using the java virtual machine pre-bundled with the
application, or using the java virtual machine previously installed
on the computer.
To launch Aqua Data Studio using its bundled Java Virtual
Machine from the command prompt, run:
Windows XP Pro 64bit and Vista 64bit
C:\>"Program Files (x86)\Aqua Data Studio 8.0 - 32bit\datastudio-bundled.bat"
Windows XP and Windows 2000
C:\>"Program Files\Aqua Data Studio 8.0 - 32bit\datastudio-bundled.bat"
Launching from the
command line and using a pre-instaleld Java Virtual
Machine
If you wish to run Aqua Data Studio with the Java Virtual
Machine that already existed on your computer, run the following
from the command prompt:
Windows XP Pro 64bit and Vista 64bit
C:\>"Program Files (x86)\Aqua Data Studio 8.0 - 32bit\datastudio.bat"
Windows XP and Windwos 2000

Running Aqua Data Studio without
installing - Using the ZIP (without installer)
version

version from http://www.aquafold.com/downloads.html
Decompress/Unarchive/Unzip Package - Next step
is to decompress and unarchive the package. You need to open the
package file with Winzip or
Windows' built in extraction tool and decompress into a selected
directory.

extracted to, double click on datastudio.exe,
Just like the installed version, it is possible to run
