J-Link Installer options page

The J-Link Installer is an NSIS installer which installs the J-Link Software and Documentation Pack. The J-Link Installer can be installed for "all users" and since Version 6.49a also for "user". The latter does not require admin elevation.

Installation options

This section of the article describes the options that can be set prior to the installation.
Note: This is only valid for version 7.94 and on-wards.

Create entry in start menu

When checked, a start menu entry of the J-Link Software and Documentation Pack is created. Is selected by default.

Add shortcuts to desktop

When checked, a desktop shortcuts for J-Link Commander and J-Flash is created. Is selected by default.

Update DLL in other applications

When checked, the J-Link DLL Updater is started after installation. Requires admin rights. Starts the DLL Updater after installation. Is selected by default. Cannot be set when Install for this user only is selected.

Update existing installation OR Install a new instance

This option sets whether a J-Link Software and Documentation Pack installed prior to the same destination folder is to be uninstalled before the installation or not. By default, "Update existing installation" is selected. Uninstalls the J-Link version found in the Install directory.

Install for all users OR Install for this user only

This option sets whether the J-Link Software and Documentation Pack is installed for all users or for this user only. By default, "Install for all users" is selected.

Destination Folder

This is the folder the J-Link Software and Documentation Pack is to be installed to. It cannot be set when Install for this user only is selected. It can only be chosen whether the folder ends with _<Version> or not, by switching between Update existing and Install a new instance.
For defaults, refer to Command line options notes, (**).
