Where do I find the Quick Install for Logos on this site? I did it here several weeks ago and for the life of me or someone else, I cannot find it tonight. Where ever it was, when I clicked on the Download, it gave me a choice I believe between the full install or selective. Please advise.

    AFAIK, if you got LogosSetup.exe from https://www.logos.com/install then it will present a "Quick" option  (usually called 'Minimum')

    Thank you for that. If perchance it begins to download the whole program, is there an option to stop it?

    You can close the Download window but it will not stop completion of the download you ordered when Logos is restarted. So you have to uninstall Logos and start again.

    I kind of figured that, for last time about, the Quick Install was an instant choice whereas this time, I find I have to download a 234 mb file to get started. Do you suppose it was because I had the Logos files (32 Gigs) on board the old computer whereas this time, I haven't copied those over to this new one?

    The LogosSetup.exe that you download initially will in turn download all the files needed for installation. You shouldn't be concerned with how large that is, but it is about 238 MB. If Logos was already installed, it would still need about 234 MB for the new version. After a fresh installation, the download of your resources begins and that includes several GB of datasets (up to 6 GB) irrespective of the library size you selected.

    If you made a mistake with the library size, you can use Library to Download additional resources or Remove superfluous ones (which you still have to do because you can't select which resources will be downloaded with the minimal option).
