6. - The two files shown above are around 3.2 GB (1.5 GB + 1.8GB) in size. It may take around 2-3 hrs to download (depending upon your internet speed)
7. Make sure both files are present in the same folder and both files have exactly the same name except for the extension (.zip and .z01).

downloaded here. You can download and install this utility.) 11.Once extracted, go inside the folder
T7177-15013
and open Install.pdf file. 12.Install.pdf contains step-by-step instructions on installing LoadRunner on Windows and Unix platform. Just remember that wherever the instructions refer to
