You can run LiteCommerce Installer in the extract only mode, if you want to install LiteCommerce software manually. In this mode, the Installer will extract the files into the 'LiteCommerce' sub-folder of the current directory and quit. To run the Installer in this mode (Figure 1-2):

* click on the 'Start' button of your Windows system,
* choose the 'Run' option,
* locate the Installer file,
* add the '-e' flag after the file name, and
* click on the 'Ok' button.
