Update requires Microsoft .Net framework 4 to be installed to continue with installation
When running the PYE update for either Quickpay or Micropay Professional, you may be prompted to install Microsoft .Net Framework 4 if it is not already installed on your PC.
This is because some components of the latest Quickpay & Micropay Professional updates are dependent on .Net Framework 4 running on your computer. Also please note, this is a separate installation completely from the PYE update.
You can download the Microsoft .Net Framework 4 free from the following website: – http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=17851 or by clicking the link on the warning message that appears when you run your payroll update.
You will need an internet connection & administrator rights to install this.
After installing the Microsoft .Net Framework 4, you can install the latest updates of Quickpay and Micropay Professional.

Just so you are aware, there won’t be any CD in the PYE pack when you receive it in the post.

Before running any software updates, best practice is to make sure that you have taken a complete backup of your payroll data & to make sure you have the necessary administrative rights on your pc.
