... Can I do a separate installation of SM2, or does it have to be over
v2.0.14? Thank you in advance. :)
Separate install is fine, you *cannot* reuse the same profile between
both versions without corruption though. 2.0.14->later should work just
fine (there have been some minor reports relating to bookmarks, but are
easily fixable) its the other direction that does not work.
Oh wow. :(
Yea, the corruption is acceptible for some users, but its not to me,
which is why I make sure to call it out when someone mentions going back
and forth in any way. It does auto-recover, *but* gets you data loss in
the end.
So My recommendation (if you have ANY intent/chance you'll revert):
* Backup your _profile_ folder
* Use help->Check for updates... download/install any update offers,
repeat.
* You should now be on 2.3.2 (reports as 2.3.1 for now) with your
working profile.
Updater tells me v2.2. Is it not out yet or do I need to wait again?
2.3.2 is out already, but the update from 2.0.14 only goes to 2.2 at
this moment, I had planned to get you updates to 2.3.1 already, but with
the chemspills this week (2.3.2/3) I'm holding back for now.
As KaiRo said, once you update to 2.2, its just another update to go to
2.3.2
Ah, so should I just get v2.3.2's full installer and skip 2.2 instead of
wasting time to download and upgrading multiple times?

the brain of a man." --Charles Darwin (from The Origin of Species, 1859)
