Upgrading to the newest beta build

Post by Daboa »

I'm sorry. I'm sure this is a stupid question, but I want to make sure before I potentially mess anything up. I'm on 4.1.0.1630 right now. I installed it in portable mode. To upgrade to 4.1.16.36, I assume I install in portable mode as well. Should i install it on top of (same directory as) my current version or should I install it into its own directory? Will I lose my playlists and stuff from my current version in either case? Thanks.

Should work in an over install of old version the data should not be lost but might want to back it up just in case, to back it up simple way is copy folder to new location renamed folder so you know what it is, then install update check all info if good delete the copied folder.
