You shouldn't apply customizations to the "share" folder. This will save you from losing anything. :-) Copying the user folder is OK, it would be easier to adjust the bootstrap.ini/bootstraprc file and let it point to the same folder as your 2.0.4 version. It's the "UserInstallation" line in the file. Just compare it with the one you find in the 2.0.4 version, it should be easy to grasp.
