When you open the disk image, you will see one file - Days Off Calculator.app (depending on your system preferences, the ".app" may not show). This file is the calculator. Drag it to your Applications folder, or to any other folder from which you wish to use it. Once you've verified that the calculator is working, you can eject the disk image, and move the download to the Trash. As you use the calculator, it does create a few small files: Days.ini to hold your settings, days51help.html which contains the calculator's help information and which is created the first time you use the Help menu, and Daysdata.txt to hold employee names and shift data if you enter these. All of these files are stored in the same folder as the calculator itself. To uninstall the calculator, just drag it to the Trash. It's also safe to get rid of Days.ini, as well as days51help.html if it exists. Any employee names and shift data you've entered are stored in Daysdata.txt, so if you need to retain that information, keep that file. |
