*.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.

Reinstallation File

A reinstallation file can be created two ways. If installing from an Update CD, you will be asked to specify a location for a Reinstallation File. Or, you can use the Create Reinstallation File menu on the Update CD to create a Reinstallation File. Be aware that a Reinstallation File must be created using a computer that has access to the Tabs3, PracticeMaster, and Tabs3 Financial Software program files. We recommend saving a Reinstallation File to removable media (if available) and storing it in a safe place. The Reinstallation File can be used in the event you ever need to reinstall the software with only an Update CD. Instructions on how to install the software using a reinstallation file can be found in R11257 - How to Reinstall Tabs3 and PracticeMaster Version 15 Software.
