Upgrading to FSUIPC V4.974

[Juergen2]

Hi,

I am trying to update my version 4.969 to version 4.974; I have the full (purchased FSUIPC V4.969) version from simMarket. Question:

1) Can I just download (from Downloads) version 4.974, unzip and install (I am running FSX-SE) and will this upgrade my purchased version?

Thanks for reply/help

Yes. Don't delete ANYTHING first. Then you don't need to re-register (just choose "not now", and all your settings are retained.

BTW this is called "updating" not "upgrading".

Pete,

I assume the "not now" appears during the installation of version 4.974????

BTW I used "update" and "upgrade" in my post, so I had a 50/50 chance of being correct.

Thanks

when you run the installer of any version at the very end of it will ask you to register, one of the options is 'Not Now'. By choosing this option it will not overwrite any previous registration.

Also as Pete already said by keeping the FSUIPC4.ini file as it is, the newer installed FSUIPC4 version will not change previous settings/ definitions either.

Thomas,

Thanks, that is exactly what I did . I also checked the version number and it is version 4.974 which is installed.

Thank you again for clarification
