Uninstall/reinstall vs. update patch // Archive: Tech Forum 1  |   Order by default Post by Alien // Apr 25, 2006, 8:08am Alien Total Posts: 1231 Given the various probs people have had moving from 7.0/7.01 to 7.1, & that the advice given has often been to uninstall the old version, wipe the folder, then install 7.1, does this mean we should all do that instead of using the patch? [I haven't gotten round to trying either method yet] Post by stoker // Apr 25, 2006, 8:13am stoker Total Posts: 506 Using the patch is probably more conveniant but as I uninstalled 7.0 and then put 7.1 on I couldnt realy say:confused: :confused: Post by Alien // Apr 25, 2006, 8:17am Alien Total Posts: 1231 Convenience is nice, but I'd rather the hassle of doing it the longer way if it reduces the risk of problems. Post by splinters // Apr 25, 2006, 8:22am splinters Total Posts: 4148 If you currently have no problems with 7.01 then I imagine the patch will simply give you the extra features and stability of 7.1 without any need to do a reinstall. Also saves you losing configs and layouts. Personally, I would patch if I was happy with my current setup...:) Post by Alien // Apr 25, 2006, 2:43pm Alien Total Posts: 1231 Oh, ok, I'll go with the patch, & keep my fingers crossed. :)
