Task: 
Install the new standalone HCL Sametime 11.5 Standard Client. 
 
 
Downloading Steps: 
1. Login to the HCL Flex server. Under Collaboration, locate and open the Sametime 11.5 folder. 
2. Use the link on the right to download, Sametime_11.5_StandardClient_Win.zip. 
3. Extract all files, and open the extracted folder: Sametime_11.5_StandardClient_Win. 
 
Note: 
If we directly run the setup.msi, the installation always fails. Therefore we run the setup.exe instead.  
 
 
Installation Steps. 
Run Setup (application). 
  
 
The rest of the installation has the typical steps: 
- Accept the license 
- Accept the default installation location, or specify your own 
(e.g. c:\Program Files (x86)\HCL\Sametime Connect\ ) 
- wait for the install complete 
- On the final confirmation screen, there is a checkbox, which defaults checked, to select whether to immediate run the Sametime Connection client, we left it checked and clicked the Finish button. 
 
 
Setup / Login Steps: 
After you launch the Sametime client, the first launch will default to the second tab to complete the Community server login.
