Can Canadian customers use this option?

No, while there are plans to add a installer for Canadians, this option is not yet available. For the time being, you will still need to use the XCOPY distribution or MSI deployment package.

I’ve uninstalled and am now reinstalling. How did the organization token get automatically entered?

The Dragon Medical One installer copies the Organization token to the Windows registry so it can be automatically entered for future use.

How will upgrades work?

When a new version of DMO is available, you will be prompted to upgrade the first time you launch DMO that day. You have three options at that prompt:
Upgrade, this will immediately update to the latest version of DMO (recommended)
Remind me later: this will let you chose to be reminded after a period of time, 30 minutes to 10 days.
Skip This Version : You will not get prompted for the current version again, but will get a prompt the next time a new version is released.

I accidentally skipped this version, how can I get the update?

If you’ve accidentally skipped this version, the program won’t prompt you until the next version is released. Head over to the Dragon Medical One Resource Centre and download the installer.
