Please make sure you do each of the following steps. If you need help, please send an email to webmaster@mysterymaster.com.

  1. Important! If you installed a previous version of the Mystery Master program, please use Window's Control Panel to remove it before installing the latest version.

  2. Microsoft's .Net Framework Because the Mystery Master program is a Microsoft .Net application, you first need to install on your computer the Microsoft .Net Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package found on Microsoft's website. If you do not already have this on your computer, click on the .Net image to go there. If you do not have the .Net Framework on your computer, the Mystery Master program will not work.

  3. After the Microsoft .Net Framework is installed on your computer, run the Mystery Master setup program MysteryMaster.msi, which is a Microsoft Installer (MSI) file. Note that you may get a message warning you about running this program. Since you trust the Mystery Master (right?), click on the Run button. This will install the Mystery Master program on your computer. The default directory for installation is the "C:\Program Files\Mystery Master" folder. After installation, this folder should contain the following files:

    • MysteryMaster.exe - the Mystery Master program
    • PuzzleData.dll - the Mystery Master Logic Puzzle data component
    • PuzzleSolver.dll - the Mystery Master Logic Puzzle solver component

  4. The installation program will also create a subfolder named "Puzzles". This folder will contain the logic puzzle module "SpyGirls.dll". This is the module for the "Spy Girls" logic puzzle. When you run the program, you can select this file from the File Open menu selection.
