Below is the method of re-installing the WinSPM software.
7.1.1 Before Re-installing the WinSPM Software
Reconfirmation of trouble
Before re-installing the software, check the cause of the trouble once again, and if
possible, eliminate it.
If the hard disk of the computer is nearly full, make a backup copy of the recorded
measurement data, then erase the data from the hard disk to free some space. Particularly,
be sure to set aside sufficient space on the hard disk where the WinSPM system is
installed.
If devices that are not part of the WinSPM are installed in the computer, remove all of
them. Also, if software other than the WinSPM software is installed in the computer,
uninstall all of it.
