5. Now the installation is successfully finished but there are a few things to do before you start working with your on-line store. Please go to your root folder on your server and remove your “install” folder, so none can reinstall your template again. (We use File Manager of our hosting, you can use any comfortable way to move or edit your files (it can be Filezilla or Cyberduck))

6. Please go to includes/configure.php and set the permissions to 444. Please do the same with the file admin/includes/configure.php. It will save your files from rewriting.
