Postcode Desktop Software: Local Data
Our Desktop Postcode Finder Software "Local Data" does not use Internet based data. It is ideal for standalone computers such as till solutions, etc
We strong recommend the Internet based data, as it is updated daily.
Simply Postcode Desktop Software: Local Data
We strongly recommend that you use the Internet based version of our Postcode Look Up Software if possible, as Royal Mail daily updates are automatic and it has the advanced word postcode search feature.
Step 1
Download either:
- Full Address Version (130mb)
- Thoroughfare (Street Level) Version (50mb)
Step 2
Open an online postcode finder software account
Please read the terms and conditions when opening the account.
Step 3
Unzip the contents of the file downloaded to a directory, either on each PC or to a shared network directory. The program requires full rights to the installed directory.
Then run "ClientInstall.exe", from the chosen installed directory, on each PC. This will place the Simply Postcode Desktop software in the start-up group, so it is always available to the user. You may be required to reboot the PC during installation.
When first run the system will ask for an unlock code:
Please ring 01945 464854, or use contact us, for your activation code, quoting your:
- License ID, which is on the e-mail sent to you when you opened the account and the first screen of your on-line account record.
- Site ID, which is shown on the
unlock window (see above). This is unique for each
installation. So if installed on a network then the
system has only one site number. If installed on
separate PC's then each PC will have a different Site ID
and require a different Activation code.
Very Important : Once installed the software cannot be moved, since it will affect the licensing. So choose the installation configuration and location carefully.
When going into the settings on the desktop postcode finder software, it will ask for a password. When used in local mode this password is "LocalMode".

Copying/Moving Installation
Once installed this type of installation SHOULD NOT BE MOVED. If it is moved then it will require a new license, which we may charge for.
