Introduction
- Installation of
WebAssistant
is very simple, unlike many other programs.
- When installing the application, the configuration of your computer is left untouched. No changes are automatically made, because
WebAssistant
is installed within one folder.
- Removing the application - if you would ever want to ;-) - is only a matter of deleting the MM3-WebAssistant folder.
WebAssistant

and decompress the ZIP archive: MM3-WebAssistant-Proxy-Offline-Browser-Private.en.zip

WebAssistant
as proxy in the preferences (often also options).
Default Address: 127.0.0.1:8080 or localhost:8080
- Start MM3-WebAssistant.jar
- Start browsing and archiving. You learn this basic principle from a test.
Step-by-Step Instruction - You would like detailed instructions
If the Quick Start instructions are a bit too short for you, here are these steps explained in more detail:
- After decompressing the
WebAssistant
ZIP archive you get the folder MM3-WebAssistantPrivate. You don't need administration rights to it.
- The program simply can be started by clicking the file MM3-WebAssistant.jar in the folder MM3-WebAssistantPrivate.
After that
WebAssistant
starts and a logo appears.
