Update Process
Hi, I read in a Z Net submission yesterday that it will be necessary do co CLEAN installs for RC. Does anyone know if this is correct? That would be something that is new to me, and which I have never even considered. The whole idea of trying a clean upgrade is quite awesome and very bothersome. How in the world is one supposed to keep things that are currently in use to say nothing of how one should have to go about restoring programs that have no provision for reinstalling. Then there are little things like Outlook and Word 2007. I've got a LOT of files in Outlook as well as quite a few writings in Word. How can one be sure that all such are not lost in the transition? When I installed this Beta version over Vista Ultimate the whole operation went very smoothly and when done there was nothing missing, other than OneCare, and my TV Tuner was inoperative. Well, I now have Norton 360 v. 3 and am still looking for a tuner that will work with W7, but those are relatively minor issues. I wrote a rather long and very impassioned letter to the Manager Feedback site today expressing these same views. maybe if some of the rest of you who feel as I do that a clean install would be intolerably burdensome would also make those thoughts known, they might be able to take perhaps a little more time to ensure that the upgrade to RC will be a smooth as from previous O/S's to W7
