It is always best to take a backup of your existing MX installation before you do an update, this allows you to regress back to the earlier version if you mess up installing the new version.
Follow the instructions for installing, you download the zip, and copy it over the existing components in your MX folder.
If you have edited any files, see if the release notice says that file has been revised, if it has not then keep your edited file by not copying in the file within the zip. If the release revises a file you previously edited, take a backup of your edited file, before you copy the new file into your folder. You can then use a file comparing tool to see what has changed in the release and what you changed and hopefully manage to merge to a new file. This includes any web pages you might have edited to give the look you desire, or the content you want (e.g. adding rain this month to this month page, or combining this month and this year page).
