PLEASE NOTE:

Most of the issues so far reported to me with this and all releases have been caused because the user failed to uninstall the old version before installing the new one.

It is essential to uninstall before each new install, because windows sometimes cache's DLL's and this can cause unpredictable results with windows that no longer open and similar problems.

Users should have maintained logbook backups using the auto backup system in Log4om options, if not it is good practice before every major install make an ADIF backup of the log.

Normally the user settings will remain safe during an uninstall/install but if the user wishes to be ultra careful then he/she can also save the config files, named config.xml and and communicatorconfig.xml that are stored in the roaming folder.
