 == Swapping from Cumulus 1 to MX ==
-If you swap from Cumulus 1 to MX, your Cumulus 1 configuration files can be read by MX provided the initial letter of the file name is a capital 'C' and the other letters are in lower case. Once it has been processed by MX, the ex Cumulus 1 main configuration file will gain a lot of new entries, and a number will be ignored.
+If you are '''running MX on Windows''', filenames are not case sensitive, so MX will recognise "Cumulus.ini" or "cumulus.ini". But although Cumulus 1 might recognise "Cumulus1.ini" or anything else other than "Cumulus.ini". MX only recognises "Cumulus.ini".
+If you are planning on '''running MX on another device''', filenames are case sensitive, and your Cumulus 1 configuration file must be called "Cumulus.ini" with an initial capital followed by lower case, so it might need to be renamed.
+Once it has been processed by MX, the ex Cumulus 1 main configuration file will gain a lot of new entries, and a number will be ignored.
