Cumulus installation version update

Post by odintheterrible »

Hi,
Just noticed that there is a new updated version of Cumulus for download.
Simple question (have searched but not really found anything relevant) ... if I run the new version installer into the same directory as the current program will all the files be overwritten requiring a completely new setup or will the old settings be retained ??
Thanks

All the old settings will be retained and if you have altered any of the xxxxxxxT.htm files to modify the web pages there is an option during the install to stop the install overwriting your modified xxxxxxxT.htm files.
