Installing new OD+

from WinCustomize Forums
Do I have to unistall the old OD+ (1.05) before I install the new OD+ (1.10). Or can I install the new one over the old one?

At first, I tried installing the new version directly from SDC, but that messed things up (ie, created a seperate directory). So I used SDC to uninstall the new version. What finally worked (sort of) was for me to close/quit out of current OD+/OD then install the new version (making sure it goes to current directory). I didn't need to uninstall it...and it kept most of my app on the dock, but I did have to reconfigure the dock/tab styles and the various icons.

There might be an easier way to keep your current settings without losing them...hopefully someone will post the answer to that here. Good luck.

Thanks for the reply. I'll try installing over the old version. You brought up an interesting point though. My OD+ doesn't even show up as being installed in SDC

Yes, you can install the new over the old, and you should see ODPlus listed under Misc in SDC. And if you have your docks all set the way you like them, use the "save theme as" option under properties before you make any changes or update anything, this way you can just click on your saved theme and if should reload for you.
