For best results when switching from SideKick to the new Revver Desktop App, you want to start by uninstalling any add-ons you’ve previously installed through SideKick. This can be done from within SideKick itself.

Start by opening up SideKick and logging in, then clicking on the ‘Add-ons’ button at the bottom left.

In the add-ons list, uncheck all currently checked options and hit ‘Apply’ to begin uninstalling them.

Once that is completed, you are ready to install the Revver Desktop App. You can uninstall SideKick from the Windows Control Panel, but it is by no means required.

To continue with installing the Revver Desktop App, please refer to our Revver Desktop App installation guide.

Installing the Revver Desktop App Add-ons

Once the Revver Desktop App is installed, you can install our optional add-ons from within the application.

Start by opening the Revver Desktop App and logging in if you have not done so already.

1. Once logged in, click on the gear icon located at the top right of the Revver window to open up the settings page.

2. In the settings window that appears, locate the add-ons section at the top and click on the ‘Install’ button next to the Printer and Scanner.

The installation will begin immediately upon clicking the ‘Install’ button and, when completed, you will notice the ‘Install’ button changes to ‘Uninstall’.

For information on how to use the printer and scanner add-ons, please refer to our usage guide.
