Step 2:
You can install modules from Windows Explorer, Internet Explorer, or Firefox.

Option A - Double Click the file in Windows Explorer
You can now double-click any e-Sword module you downloaded in Windows Explorer:

For a non-editable module, the Module Installer shows this screen (don't worry, all you have to do is click "OK").

What's New in Version 0.6 (See full changelog)

  • September 2, 2016: No coding changes. I added a code signing certificate to both the installer exe and the tab renamer exe to avoid most virus/malware warnings. This identifies the program as being from "Bible Support".
  • July 2016:
  • Updated to work with e-Sword's HTML/Apple modules, such as commentary.refi, bible.bbli, reflibrary.refi, lexicon.lexi, etc.


BIBLESUPPORT e-Sword Module Installer works for PC running e-Sword version 9, 10, 11, AND version 12. Sorry, Josh Bond has been extremely busy, studying high-level theological problems, and his co-programmers forgot to update the initial instruction page above.  After you CLICK on DOWNLOAD, please give permission to your PC to SAVE "ModuleinstallerSetup06.exe" on your Microsoft PC, and to KEEP it and to allow it to run. Select the option to SHOW IN FOLDER. Right-click with your pointer on the filename, and either OPEN, or RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR. Follow on-screen prompts. Read these instructions very carefully, from top to bottom, reading from left to right. When prompted read "show more details". ALLOW this app to make changes to your device - respond with YES option. Read all Setup e-Sword Module Installer pop-up windows which appear. HINT: Write down notes of instructions please, so you will have these handy, in your own notebook, in future. Read each window from top-to-bottom, twice, take notes, then follow instructions. Make notes of the instructions, and what you responded with, and what then happened, please. Remember, use the slider to browse the "window" down so you can read text which continues below the open window. The default folder, as pre-loaded, is okay to use.
After this has run, please check what has been done and changed in your PC. Click on Start > Settings > enter the word "type", without double quotes; then you will see various options. Select option  "Choose a default app for each type of file". Use the slider to the extreme right of the window. Slide down to see all filetypes your PC knows about. Check that all the following e-Sword filename-extensions have been linked so that in future, if the PC encounters a file with one of these filetype name extensions, that the PC will call up "moduleinstaller.exe" which had been loaded as the following, into This PC > Windows (C:) > \Program Files\e-Sword Module Installer\moduleinstaller.exe
These are various file-name extensions for the different e-Sword modules which will help you in future to copy any of the following downloaded e-sword modules into the required relevant ...\e-Sword folder. .bbli .bblx .brpi .brpx .cmti .cmtx .dcti .dctx .devi .devx .hari .harx .jnli .jnlx .lexi .lexx .lsti .lstx .mapi .mapx .memi .memx .noti .notx .refi .refx .topi .topx 
Now, look in the download folder for files with these filetype extensions, move your pointer over one of them and left-click. This should now call up the BIBLESUPPORT e-Sword Module Installer. Follow on-screen prompts, to copy the downloaded file into the required ...\e-Sword  folder, so it will be found when you then open the "e-Sword" application. 

Now run e-Sword. While e-Sword is running, use the keyboard shortcut "F1" function key, as "help", to read the e-Sword User's Manual. If you use a laptop, you may need to also press the "Fn" key to access the Function key options. Please read those Manual notes. They should answer most of your questions. Use Control+F to "search" for words in the manual. That means, press the Ctrl key, and while holding that down, also tap the F key on the keyboard, then release both keys. The e-Sword User's Manual has been written, like the Bible, with a little here, and a little there, and everything is to be read in its own context. Exactly like when you read the Bible, read the Table of Contents, to find out where the various sections are to be found. And please, read page 1 and page 2, before you start reading further.

Thank you for this. In my default apps list, I have all the extensions but .lexx. Is this going to be a problem for me?

The .lexx filetypes can be moved using File Explorer, and the Copy option, and then browse to the Resource Destination Location, such as to C:\Program Files (x86)\e-Sword and use the Paste option. Then check that the file was moved.

When you download a module from e-Sword "Download" option to your PC, it will usually download directly into This PC > C: drive > Program Files (x86) > e-Sword  folder.
If your PC has not been set to allow https://www.e-sword.net to load directly into C:\Program Files (x86)/e-Sword folder, then the file may be downloaded to C:\\Users\[filename]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\e-Sword folder.
 
NOTE: The [filename] will be how the PC identifies your login, and may be "user" or something else. Use the name for the relevant folder.
 
Using File Explorer, browse to C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\e-Sword
Move the pointer to thayer.lexx for example. Right click. Select "Copy" option.
Browse to This PC > C: drive > Program Files (x86) > e-Sword folder and right click, and move your pointer to the "Paste" option, and left-click. The file ought to be copied to the destination folder. Then open that folder and check that the file was actually loaded into the folder.

If there are other files in the same file, use the option to select the file, and left-click, and it ought to bring up C:\Program Files\e-Sword Module Installer\InstallerModule.exe and that ought to allow you to get the file to be copied into C:\Program File (x86)\e-Sword folder correctly.
 

 

Thank you, my brother for finding the time to put this incredibly helpful utility together!

 

I have just recently re-discovered this website having spent some time browsing in the past but never actually taking advantage of the resources available. This installer has made it a cinch for me to add in the features I want so that I can tailor e-Sword to my needs.

hi there, is there an installer module for e-sword version 13

This BibleSupport e-Sword Module Installer will work successfully for all versions of e-Sword from version 9 and later, including up to e-Sword version 13.0.0

There is a draft proposed revised instructions for the Biblesupport.com e-Sword Module Installer at 
http:// www.biblesupport.com/topic/11491-module-installer-info/

for further attention by the moderators, and webmaster. Thank you.

Is there a version for MacOS?

Is there a version for MacOS?

 

There is no need for a version for macOS. Just double click the e-Sword module file and it will open in e-Sword automatically.

Totally intuitive.  Thank you all you BLESSED PEOPLE.  I didn't have to even think when I ran the download installer app.  Blinked my eyes a couple of times and every thing was installed.  Well done BLESSED PEOPLE.

 

I think that the problem many have, is that they didn't install eSword correctly.  That's what happened to me in the past.

 

This time, on a new PC, I got it right.  All works like it should.

 

Blessings, 1clearbrush
