-====== ENVI-met Version 4 ======
+===== Download ENVI-met V4 =====
+Below you will find the recent ENVI-met V4 release. From now on, there will be a Winter Release (around end of October to Mid November) and a Summer Release (around end of April) each year. The Winter Release usually brings new features to the system while the Summer Release is mainly dedicated to small updates and bugfixes (but this isn't a law...). Users of the LITE (Basic before) Version **must** update to the newest versions within one month.  In addition, there will be "Hot Updates" available if required to those who can't wait for the next official release.
+**ENVI-met LITE is limited to domains of 50 x 50 grids.**

+=== Installation remarks ===
-The license conditions depend on the version of ENVI-met you use. You need to agree to the exact and actual license conditions when installing ENVI-met. A general overview can be seen [[https://www.envi-met.com/softwarelicenseagreements/|here]]
+== Upgrading from an older version ==
+You may upgrade an existing ENVI-met by installing the new version in the same folder as the old one. If the old version already uses the new license keys, no re-registration is required. You can also install the new version in a different folder and use different versions in parallel. In this case, a re-registraton of your keys will be required. Also be aware of the double-clicks on files which will always open the last installed version of the associated app.
-== System Requirements ==
+== BIO-met 2.0 ==
-WINDOWS 7, 8/8.1 or 10 64Bit, ENVI-met can be installed on 32 Bit Systems but large models (above 200x200) probably will not work due to memory shortage, 3 GB Memory and 1 CPU core for each active simulation, a lot of disk space (expect 5 GB for one 24-hrs Simulation). ENVI-met might run in a virtualized environment, but calculate slower and will need non-standard settings.
+Users with **OLD BIO-met 1.x Keys** (Permanent License) need to start BIO-met 1.5 from the Windows Start Menue **NOT** the BIO-met 2.0 linked in the Headquarter. If you have bought a new license recently, you will get a NEW BIO-met key for Version 2.0 (the old one won't work) in the coming days. Please allow some time to manually process all the keys.
-== Upgrading to full BUSINESS/ SCIENCE Version ==
+**Important: You must have or get full read/write access to the install folder during install, otherwise the software won't work** After installation, normal user rights are sufficient.
-The installation package found here can be upgraded from the trial LITE version to the BUSINESS/ SCIENCE version with a license key (no re-install required). For more information, please visit our web site: [[https://www.envi-met.com/buy-now/|ENVI_MET Buy Now]].
