Zennoposter downgrade

[krisztos]

I wanted to quote one user from about one year in post:
http://zennolab.com/discussion/threads/zennoposter-5-new-build-5-4-0-0-11-aug-2014.15026/#post-92397

I'm asking that because there is NO way to downgrade ... I have to uninstall loosing all my Interface configuration / custom icons and etc ... and this is a Problem
Do somebody know how to preserve the ProjectMaker / ZennoPoster configurations during such a uninstall / install downgrade?


I face that issue very often - has anything changed since then? There should be one button revert in zennoposoter - till now how we can revert zenno without uninstalling it?

What exactly you loose after reinstall? Tasks, layout should stay the same.

 

[krisztos]

Yes, I loose layout, also sync data - just as the user lupo said. Maybe it's a hint to reinstall zenno without uninstalling higher version?

 

[rostonix]

There's function for saving and restoring integrated now

 

[krisztos]

It's not solving all issues - you should better implement this downgrade feature, cause like some people said - we're beta testers of every new version, where hotfix is very common thing.

It's not solving all issues

what issues left?

 

[krisztos]

I sync data from many zennoposter folders in dropbox - after uninstall I loose them all. I should be able to install lower version just as I install higher version. Manually saving with above feature is not also handy.

 

[rostonix]

You just can store this data outside of ZennoPoster folder in Program files.

 

[krisztos]

Yes, but please see how many things we have to do when downgrading - we have to save those settings, uninstall, install old version, and like in every clean install something always will go wrong. Why we just can't downgrade the way we upgrade?
