BlueZone Installation

Chapter 2

Upgrading Versions Between 3.3 and 4.0

Overview

Starting with BlueZone version 4.1, BlueZone uses an MSI type installer (InstallShield Wizard), to keep track of all the installed BlueZone files.  Since you are upgrading a version between 3.3 and 4.0, this will be the first time that the InstallShield Wizard will have had an opportunity to run.  This means that for this upgrade only, the InstallShield Wizard will be performing what is essentially a full BlueZone installation.  In the future, BlueZone upgrades will be under the control of the InstallShield Wizard, and therefore, will be much easier to perform.

Your current BlueZone "user" created files, such as; profiles (configuration files), scripts, macros, etc., will remain intact and will be fully compatible with the upgraded version of BlueZone.
