# textpad_installer [![Flattr this][flatter_png]][flatter]
Downloadsand install TextPad, and many of the
freeware add-ons available at http://www.textpad.com/add-ons/.
textpad_installer looks in the directory where textpad_installer.exe is for
any files it needs before attempting to download them. If it does download a
file, it will attempt to save a copy of the file in a directory below the
directory where textpad_installer.exe was found in.
The add-ons will be installed in the
`C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\TextPad` directory.
Any add-ons with the same name in this directory will be overwritten without
warning.
Please note, if you select 'All', some add-ons have the same filenames as
other add-ons, so the one listed later, will overwrite the one listed earlier.
If you use the `/S` option, the installer will re-install TextPad, even if it's
already installed.
## Usage
