Introduction
MOM Desktop application comes with an automatic update facility. When any new version of the application is installed on the server, the Desktop utility will automatically download the update and ask the user whether the update needs to be installed. If the user chooses to do so, the latest version of the Desktop application will be installed on the user’s machine.

How to Install?
If the user is installing the MOM Desktop for the first time the click on the ‘Install MOM Desktop’ button and click on ‘Yes’. If there is an installation already present on the user machine then the ‘Upgrade MOM Desktop’ button with the version installed and the available version will be displayed. If the installation on the user machine and the server version is the same then the ‘Launch MOM Desktop’ button is displayed.
While upgrading the MOM Desktop (Figure 2) is displayed where the installed version and the version to be installed will be displayed. By clicking on ‘Fewer Options’ two more buttons are displayed. The ‘Uninstall’ button removes the application from the user’s machine and the ‘Run Now’ button runs the version already installed on the user’s machine.
