   The Arcserve Support documentation bookshelf opens.

2. Click the Download this Bookshelf link to download the bookshelf to your Arcserve Backup server.

   Note: You can also click the Download Help link on the Documentation Configuration dialog.

   The File Download dialog appears for the file.

   Example: Arcserve Backup Backup r16 5-ENU.zip (English version).

3. Click Save.

   The Save As dialog appears.

4. Specify or verify the following fields and click Save.
   • Save in--enter the folder where you want to save the zip file.
   • File name--verify the file name being saved is correct.

     Example: Arcserve Backup Backup r16 5-ENU.zip

   • Save as type--verify the type is WinZip File or CA Zip.

   The Download complete dialog appears and the zip file is saved.

5. Click Open, Open Folder, or Close.

   The zip file opens, the folder containing the zip file opens, or the dialog closes.

6. Extract the contents of the zip file to the location specified above where the zip file was saved.

   Note: If the extraction utility contains an overwrite existing files option, you should enable the option. However, if the extraction utility prompts you to overwrite the files in the destination directory, click Yes to All.

   The documentation bookshelf is downloaded, installed in the local directory, and updated to the latest version.
