The wizard only contains a few steps and will help you setup where your data will be located on your computer and how PageSnip will work for you.

The first thing you need to decide is how and where PageSnip will store your snipped content. PageSnip will suggest a location (using Windows Standards Guidelines) after you decide how you want to use PageSnip.
Your choices are:
Keep my PageSnip data files private
This selection will result in PageSnip suggesting that your data be stored under the My Documents folder.
Share PageSnip data files with other users on this computer
This selection will result in PageSnip suggesting that your data be stored under the All Users\Documents folder.
Keep my PageSnip data files where they are
This selection is the one you choose when you are running the wizard again after your initial installation and you want to keep your snips in the location that you previously selected.
Click Next to continue and display the next screen:
If you selected Keep my PageSnip data files private you will see this screen:
If you selected Share PageSnip data files with other users on this computer you will see this screen:

You can select a different folder or even a different drive and PageSnip will use your selection to create the folder structure that it uses to hold your snips.
Note: For Windows Vista compatibility you can NOT select any folder under the C:\Program Files location
After you make your selection (or accept the suggested location) click Next to continue and display the next screen:
Windows Login Name and PageSnip Profile Name
PageSnip will detect your Windows Login Name and will automatically use that to create a PageSnip profile of the same name. You can not edit these values.
Your Author Name
When you snip content or create a PDF, PageSnip can automatically assign your name as the author of the snip (the person who gathered the snip - not the author of the content). Enter the name you want to appear here.
Click Next to continue and display the next screen:
The wizard makes it easy for you to control when PageSnip starts and also the location of extra program shortcuts.
Start PageSnip with Windows
The default behavior is for PageSnip to start automatically when your computer boots and run in the System Tray. It is highly recommended that you leave PageSnip running in the Windows System Tray. This makes sure that you have the best snipping experience since the PageSnip services are "always on" when you are surfing the web.

Add a Quick Launch shortcut
