[Dx4win] DX4WIN 6.03

[Barry]

How come after every program update, there are days upon days of 
questions, problems, etc?  Shouldn't an update be relatively 
seamless?  It should archive what is necessary and then replace what 
needs to be replaced, with options along the way, if necessary.  It 
shouldn't create new program folders every time (does it still do 
that?) Though a great program, DX4WIN is probably the most difficult 
one to upgrade, requiring prayer to assure one's country totals and 
preferences don't change from version to version.  Guess that's why 
I'm still using 4.07.
