I upgraded in recent weeks from 3.x to 4.0 and then to 4.1.

I had zero problems installing the new versions (although the upgrade
seems to have lost my saved filter (or whatever it's called) in a csv
price import).

I did get a Windows Defender warming during the install process. I
ignored it, and that was that.

There's no way of knowing (that I know of) how many users upgrade
without issue, but I'm confident that the vast majority of upgraders
do so successfully.

Both were as planned in the release schedule. The 4.0 update was 3 months after 
3.9 (3.10 was an emergency release 2 weeks after 3.9, and 3.11 was the normally 
planned simultaneous release with 4.0). As with most x.0 releases, there were 
enough bugfixes in the first month after release to warrant the 4.1 release on 
a faster schedule. Again, the 4.1 release plan was published far in advance as 
being a 1-month after 4.0. To put things back to the usual schedule (every 
three months at the end of the usual calendar quarters), the 4.2 release is 
scheduled for the end of September. Other than the 3.10 issues, there are no 
surprises here.

I'm still on 2.6.21

I had trouble updating to 3.x, so I gave up.  I think the big reasons users
should keep updated is to clear up a bug they're facing, or if they have a
question about how to do something, it's handy to be asking for help with a
recent version.

So far, I've been pretty lucky with the end of the 2.6 series

Kind regards, Greg Feneis

Any idea as to why there have been two updates in the past month?

I have an iMac and decided not to do the last update.

Thanks
