QL/E currently (v3) has no easy way of updating its WIN file. Currently a lot of hand work is needed to migrate user changes to a new release of QL/E. For the next major release a strategy and upgrade mechanism similar to Windows 10 is planned. In other words starting with this future release, codenamed "Red kite", QL/E will preserve user installed software. Unlike Windows 10, QL/E will keep the installed system but upgrade with delta-files. This keeps the upgrade package as small and transparent as possible.
