Upgrading Calibre Portable

nynaevelan · 08-22-2011, 11:34 AM

Hi:

This is my first upgrade since I switched to Calibre Portable, when I install the new version should I make a copy of my Library and Settings folders prior to the upgrade in order to avoid losing my settings?? Or can I just copy over the Calibre directory and calibre-portable.exe files to my folder?

Thanks Kovid, I saw that but since it didn't mention the other folders, I was a little confused on what I should do.

Do exactly what it says, copy only the settings and library folders from the old installation to the new.
