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. QL forever!

Re: [Ql-Users] Updating my QLE
Hi, Is it possible to have a user area in BP or QLE so user specific software can be installed. I use a Linux sydtem, which I have my home directory on a separate paritition from the system files. So I can change Linux OS without altering the user data. Could these QL distros use this type of system setup.
