Extract the files in the .zip folder to the same location. A subfolder is generated
containing the installation package. This subfolder has the same name as the zip
file. We will refer to this subfolder as the installation package folder.

Launching v2012 ICD-10-CA/CCI
*** Please Note: When you launch Folio Views from the shortcuts, instead of opening an
Infobase (.NFO) file, you should always open the 2012-compatible Shadow File (.SDW) file
from the .SDW shortcut. A new “upgrade shadow” feature is embedded in both the v2012
ICD-10-CA and CCI .SDW products. This feature allows you to quickly merge your v2009
shadow files into the v2012 classifications.
The only difference between the Folio .NFO file and the .SDW file is essentially the suffix in the
file name and the Title Bar of the Folio Views application will have a “Shadow” .SDW (see
below). All functionality will be the same in the .SDW as an .NFO file, with the addition that you
3
will now be able to merge your 2009 Shadow File into this .SDW and add new Shadow File
Notes, Highlighters, and Bookmarks.

Go to - Start > Programs > CIHI Publications Group > CCI ICD-10-CA 2012 and
click the shortcut named “ICD-10-CA - Shadow – English” or “CCI - Shadow –
English” (see below). This will launch Folio Views with the ICD-10-CA or CCI
blank 2012 Shadow (.SDW) file.

Please read the instructions on how to Upgrade a v. 2009 Shadow File into the
v. 2012 .SDW \V 2012 Shadow File upgrade.docx
