re-Registration needed

[rickalty]

I registered FSUIPC some time ago - Version 3.11, and about a month ago I registered WideFS - version 5.50. I see that there's now FSUIPC 3.20, and WideFS version 6.20. If I download the latest version of each will I need to buy a new registration for either one?

No, certainly not. Your registrations last the life of FSUIPC 3.xx and WideFS 6.xx respectively, at least. I don't want folks using old versions. I cannot support old versions!

Thanks, Pete - I was pretty certain that was the case from FSUIPC 3.11 to 3.20, just wasn't so sure going from WideFS 5.xx to 6.xx.

Ah, sorry. I didn't see you said "I registered WideFS - version 5.50". I should have corrected you there.

There was NO registration, no payment at all, for FSUIPC before version 3 nor for WideFS before version 6. There's no registration which you could have made for 5.50 which will carry over to version 6.xx. Sorry to have misled you.

But if you were running with FSUIPC 3.11 before you couldn't have been using WideFS 5.50 in any case -- only WideFS 6.xx works with FSUIPC 3.xx.

Whoops... never mind.... for some reason I still had a copy of wideserver.dll 5.50 in my downloads\unpack folder, which must have been the file I did the version check on. The one in FS2002\Modules is 6.101

I can just overwrite the .dll's, right? and the .ini's will retain the registration keys?

Just overwrite the DLLs (and the WideClient.EXE's). The registrations are kept in the FSUIPC.KEY file, for both. Keep a copy of that safe, print it as well. The INI files only contain your preferences and settings.
