No, no and no.
on windows when you ininstall you really do uninstall.
everything in the folder Abisuite is removed
otherwise people would complain that we do not uninstall properly
(someone complained before when we left a few mere registry keys behind).
well actually im not completely sure, some of the files in
c:\windows\profiles\username\Application Data\Abisuite
might get left behind
always make backups if you want to be able to undo any changes,
and i assume you do of coures already have backups because you just never
can tell when windows might go wrong
"windows, it just does that sometimes"
you _should_ be able to get away with just installing the new version over
the old one, but I cannot be absolutely 100% sure, and im giving you this
advice for free ...
