New version installation

Post by PD1GAW »

Hi all,

I downloaded the zip file for version 2.23.0
It contains one .exe file.
Questions:
  • Can I just replace the old one?
  • or is it an installation program?
  • and what happens to config and database?
Sincerely,

73, Gerard PD1GAW

Its an installer just run it to overwrite the existing installation.

Database and configuration should be retained but as with all GOOD Windows housekeeping please perform a backup prior to installing

PLEASE NOTE THESE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY APPLY FOR A VERSION 2 UPDRADE, IF UPGRADING TO VERSION 2 FROM VERSION 1 YOU SHOULD FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN OUR USER GUIDE

Thanks Terry,

It worked (of course).
Perhaps a little chapter in the manual about 'Updating the program' ?

I could not find it, maybe I did not look hard enough?
