Hello Rick,
Do not try to copy the files over. Download and install v9 from the
website. Version 9 no longer uses Jim's Data Updater; the update process is
built in to the program. From the menu bar at the top:
Help > Check for Updates
You should do this as soon as the program finishes installing to get the
latest program version and associated files.
Detailed instructions for upgrading are here:

Subject: [Dx4win] Upgrade and switch to new PC
I am upgrading my DX4WIN from 8.05 to the latest and I am installing the
latest version on a new Windows 10 PC. The previous install is on an old XP
machine. I have been looking through the reflector archives and have not
found anything specific to what I am trying to do.
I have seen posts about copying the entire DX4WIN directory from one machine
to another but I am not sure if I should do that, and then do an 9.09 on the
new machine, or if I should install 9.09 and then copy some of the files
from the old machine to the new one.
I am also unclear about if/when I will need to run AD1C's DXWin Data
Updater.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Rick
