Question: How do I reinstall an earlier build of Foxhound?
Answer: The
regular re-installation process
will work for an earlier build. HOWEVER, the post-upgrade process
will NOT copy the data from your current Foxhound database to the one that's being installed when the
current installed build number is later than the one that's being installed. That means you lose your
sample data and option settings, and it means you will have to activate Foxhound as if it were a brand
new installation.
You can preserve some of your data if you plan ahead and
take a backup of your current Foxhound database
before installing a new version. Then, if you decide to re-install the old version, you can
do a restore
rather than run another installation process. You will lose all the sample data recorded
while the new version was running, plus all the changes you made to option settings... but you will
get your old data back and you won't have to activate Foxhound again.
