Upgrade to 541.05

I wonder if the Hoster.exe files have installed to two different places.
Right click on the shortcut and select properties, The target window should read "C:\Program Files (x86)\Micro Technology Unlimited\Hoster\Hoster.exe"
Does it show the same path in each shortcut ?

The Backup/Restore are you accessing it from the Tools menu/Help/Backup/Restore. ?

Or from the C:\Program Files (x86)\Micro Technology Unlimited\Hoster folder? Only it won't backup if executing it from here. I think that will only restore a previous backup.
You must use the option from within Hoster to backup.

I was executing it from the Tools menu.

So I uninstalled the new version, and reinstalled the new version to the same folder where 5.404 was. The overwrote the 5.404 version so now both Hoster icons on the desktop executed 5.405. The songfiles all came over, but the instabuttons and configuration from 5.404 did not- it remembered the songs in the cue and the songfiles from the previous install of 5.405.
Oh well. It's now working with a single instance of Hoster, so I'll just go reinstall my instabuttons and set up my configuration again.

One thing that could cause backup problems and not seeing your instabuttons is if you are not running as Administrator.

Find your Hoster.exe file to find the correct one Right click on your Hoster shortcut again then Properties then open file location, right click the Hoster.exe file then select Run as Administrator. Or to make sure it's permanent Select properties after right clicking Hoster.exe then Compatability then tick the box there for run this progame as administrator.

Then see if the backup restore feature works.

Nope- the previous version is installed in C:\ProgramData\mtu.com\Hoster and the new installed in C:\MTU
