Re: Moving Software

I can't guarantee Hoster 5.08 would run correct on the later Windows versions, this change was made in 5.09 because of problems:


"
  1. NEW - Programdata folder created to follow Microsoft Standards - We have had some problems of not being able to write to the C:\MTU\Hoster directory on some Windows 8 systems, this should clear it up.



    This version will MOVE your C:\MTU\Hoster Folder under Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8 to the new location at C:\ProgramData\mtu.com\Hoster. Under Windows Xp it is MOVED to c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\mtu.com\Hoster "
So I can tell you how to transfer all your data to the new computer if you want to try your old version but would recommend upgrading.



If you want to try your old version you must uninstall the existing while on line to register it's removal.



The way to move all the data is described in this thread:



It will be slightly different if you upgrade to latest as the data folder will be in a different place.



Microstudio should not be a problem just un install while online to register removal and instal on new computer.
