so you can not upgrade to beta 3?

updating to beta 3 manually do not delete or overwrite the folders image, video?

Yes of course you can, there was a issue with beta 2 that meant it didnt automatically update, beta 3 fixes that but you will need to instal it from the updates folder as it wont auto update (thats the issue with beta 2).

No, nothing will be overwritten or lost if you update manually.

That does not work for me. Running the update manually does not take. It also launches a fresh (unpopulated, unregistered) version. Closing that and restarting the program reverts to 8.6.1. This is on two different machines (Win7 and Win10) with the program installed in a location other than default.

You have to instal it on top of your current instal, it sounds like you are installing it to the default C//username path.

I did change the install path to my installed directory. Didn't work. It also didn't appear to install at all. Just ran a temporary execution, if that makes sense. Also, I recently deleted the 7 GIGS worth of updates in the Update folder.

OK got it. It was installing in a "LaunchBox" folder within the "LaunchBox" folder. Just need to select the parent directory when installing.
