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). | 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 you are installing the new version of MX in a different folder, or on a different drive, follow instructions for installing from scratch (download zip and unzip all files into new home), before you run MX, copy the entire CumulusMX/data and Cumulus/Reports contents in old location into same folders in new location. Also copy your '''CumulusMX/Cumulus.ini''' from old folder into new location. | If you are installing the new version of MX in a different folder, or on a different drive, follow instructions for installing from scratch (download zip and unzip all files into new home), before you run MX, copy the entire '''CumulusMX/data''' and '''Cumulus/Reports''' contents in old location into same folders in new location.
