Installation of v5.0.8

2012-09-24 Thread Jack S. LaRosa
Greetings All,

Some time ago I upgraded to version 5.0.8 and installed it. However, because of
the way I had my PC screen configured TB! didn't display properly. At the time I
wanted to keep my PC screen configuration as it was so I reinstalled v4.2.44.2.
Since that time however I have gotten new glasses and can now tolerate a
normally configured screen.

What do I have to do to get v5.0.8 installed? I don't remember what I did when I
first successfully installed it so long ago. I tried running
thebat_home_5-0-8.msi and it seemed to be installing properly but as you can
see, I'm still running v4.2.44.2.

What am I missing?

I'm not sure what you are missing with your installation process but version
5.0.8  was  a disaster with many bugs.  I suggest that if you want to update
you should rather go to a more recent version such as 5-2.msi
