Upgrading from Previous Versions

If you are a registered user of any Actual Tools product of version earlier than 6.0, then please read the following carefully:

• According to Actual Tools upgrade policy, registered users are entitled to a special discount on major updates (as when upgrading from 5.x to 6.x). Please visit our Upgrade Center and follow the instructions there to register your copy of Actual Tools program with this discount. Minor updates (like from 6.0 to 6.1) can be done for free using your original 6.x registration code.

• If you are upgrading from a version earlier than 4.0 then you should import your old configuration to make it compatible with a newer version. To import your settings from a 3.x version, simply run the Configuration Import wizard and follow its instructions.

  You can import all the settings you had in a previous version of Actual Tools software if you are migrating:

  • from any earlier Actual Tools product to Actual Window Manager

  • from any earlier Actual Tools product to a newer version of the same product (e.g. from Actual Title Buttons 3.8 to Actual Title Buttons 4.0)

• If you are upgrading from the version 4.0 or later, there are no special actions required: your current configuration will be automatically used as is - you must not import it with the Configuration Import wizard.
