*.RRA Files are created by InstallShield. These are files that are created in the Program Directory when the file that the installation is trying to replace is locked. The file will be created with the first four letters of the real file name, followed by 4 random numbers and letters, followed by an extension of RRA. For example, if TBMAIN.EXE is in use at the time of the installation, a file named TBMA9F0B.RRA may be created in the program directory (or some other combination of letters and numbers following the "TBMA" portion of the file name). InstallShield will also place an entry in the Windows Registry to tell the computer to replace the locked file on the next reboot. Once the file is replaced by the RRA file, the RRA file will be removed.
A recovery file can be created two ways. If installing from an Update CD, you will be asked to specify a location for a Recovery File. Or, you can use the Create Recovery File menu on the CD to create a Recovery File. Be aware that a Recovery File must be created using a computer that has access to the Tabs3, PracticeMaster, and Tabs3 Financial Software program files. We recommend saving a Recovery File to a floppy disk (if available) and storing it in a safe place. The Recovery File contains the serialized information for all installed programs, which can be used in the event you ever need to reinstall the software with only an Update CD. The steps needed to reinstall the software with the Recovery File is as follows:
