Installation

CamBam is a .NET application so will require at least .NET Framework 2 for it to work.

The latest .NET framework can be downloaded here.

If you have problems with the MSI installer, download and unzip this setup program into the same folder as the MSI file and run setup.exe.
If problems persist, try downloading the binary only release.

Run the installer program and follow any on screen instructions.

Once installed I recomend you take a moment to look at Getting Started.
