1.10.0 to 1.10.1 ?
Excuse me, I hope this is the correct place to ask: I have 1.10.0 and like it much, I see that 1.10.1 is out. I am a windows user and computer illiterate, and I HAVE searched and read the faq and this thread http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?t=31332,but I still have two questions: Do I need to
a. download the entire 1.10.1 package and install that over 1.10.0
b. Do a., but uninstall 1.10.0 first
c. do something different?
Also, I am working through the HttT campaign and would not want to break my saves and have to start over -- would installing 1.10.1 risk breaking a save, especially if option (b) above is the correct one?
thank you much in advance

uninstalling the previous version doesn't hurt, it keeps the start menu (and the list of installed programms) tidy.
only the files that have been installed will be deleted, which means that your userdata (including saves and preferences) will not be touched. if you install the new version it will automatically use the old userdata directory.
if you chose to put userdata in the install path you have to install it in the same location (i think the default is fine because it doesn't contain the version number).

everything should be fine according to the changelog...onomastikon wrote:Also, I am working through the HttT campaign and would not want to break my saves and have to start over -- would installing 1.10.1 risk breaking a save, especially if option (b) above is the correct one?

Thank you very much!
Might be an idea to put info like this in the FAQ for the computer-illiterate such as myself.
