Re: Upgrade to new version

2017-11-13 Thread Maxim Masiutin
Hello Tom,

First, buy the version 8 registration key and enter it for your version 7 
registration.

Version 8 keys are backwards-compatible for version 7 as well.

Make sure that The Bat! 7 displays your version 8 key, it should tell in the 
about box that the registration key is valid until version 8.9.

Then, download and install the version 8 .MSI file. Don't uninstall anything. 
Version 8 will update all the program files and will keep using your data files.

If you like to pin The Bat! to the Windows Taskbar, the icon will no longer be 
valid. To make it survive installations of the new versions, do the following, 
once. After you have installed version 8, we would recommend you to manually 
create a shortcut on the desktop to point to C:\Program Files\The 
Bat!\thebat64(or 32).exe, and then drag this shortcut to the taskbar.

Upgrade to new version

2017-11-13 Thread Tom

Hello Everyone,

I  notice  a  new version has come out and wonder what the recommended
upgrade  procedure is. In the past I sometimes had to move the program
to  a  new  pc  but in this case I will do the update / upgrade on the
same pc.
Can  I  install  over  the  top  or is is recommended to uninstall and
reinstall?

Thank you. It works using PCRE syntax leaving off the pattern
delimiters.
