HOW TO USE:

1. Ensure that you are logged in to Windows with a user account that 
   is a member of the "Administrators" group and that the user
   account also has Systems Insight Manager administrative privileges.

2. Download the kit to a directory on your hard drive (other than
   the root of the drive) and change to that directory.  The file 
   that is downloaded is a self-extracting executable with the name
   SIM72_hotfix_2016_Jan_win.exe.

3. From that drive and directory, execute the downloaded file
   and follow the on-screen instructions to unpack the files and
   install the kit.  Note that it will stop and restart
   the Systems Insight Manager service and other services that use Systems
   Insight Manager during this process.  The entire update should take 
   less than 10 minutes.

4. After a successful installation, you may delete the self-extracting
   file and the files unpacked in step 3 if you wish.
