How to Exclude ClinicOffice from AntiVirus Software (Local Installations)

Occasionally we have experienced some anti-virus programs wrongly reporting some ClinicOffice files as being “infected” or “potentially dangerous”. This is called a false-positive. Typically, the anti-virus software will then quarantine the files which stops ClinicOffice from working.

Can I use an X-Ray machine with ClinicOffice?

ClinicOffice can be used with any scanning or imaging device (including X-Ray machines) provided that they support either ‘Windows image Acquisition’ (WIA) or if it has a ‘TWAIN driver’.

From the update 1097 and on-wards, ClinicOffice is being compiled so that it can run either on the 32-bit or 64-bit architectures. Depending on the version of Windows you are running, ClinicOffice will default to that architecture type. Most modern computers have a 64-bit operating system, so for these, ClinicOffice will default to 64-bit. This […]

Can ClinicOffice run over a wireless network?

Although ClinicOffice will work over a wireless network, we STRONGLY advise against it. ClinicOffice is a database application and requires constant network availability. An intermittent wireless connection will cause stability issues and (at worst) could even cause data corruption. Even if your wireless connection is rock solid, the performance will still be MUCH slower than […]

Can ClinicOffice run on my Tablet or Phone?

ClinicOffice is a Windows application, so it requires Microsoft Windows to run on and therefore cannot be installed on non-Windows tablets or smartphones. However, it is possible to connect to the ClinicOffice HOSTED Edition using a tablet or smartphone (e.g. iPad, iPhone, Android Tablet / Phone etc.). This is because the ClinicOffice Hosted Edition is […]
