BEFORE YOU START Site Survey must be completed: [Link]
This Quick Guide is intended to assist with the installation of Sidexis 4 and assumes
there is no previous version of Sidexis installed at the office. If there are any issues
with the installation process please call DentsplySirona Support at 1-800-659-5977.
During some installations of Sidexis 4, the SQL server may not install because there
is already another da-tabase installed that uses SQL Server 2014. In this situation, a
manual install of our SQL server is needed.

"SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe" and select "Run as Administator".
2) Under the Installation option, select “New installation or add features to an existing installation".
3) For the next step please select "I accept", and then "Next".
