| You can install it over the top. If you uninstall then you need to re-enter the registration code, assuming you have registered it.
However with any software it is a good idea to back things up, particularly files you have put work into, like scripts, world files, plugins etc.
As Poromenos discussed in another thread recently, if you update the files shipped with MUSHclient (eg. change plugins) then the update will overwrite those.
However updating will not overwrite or delete any world files, as it doesn't come with any of those. |
