[Logic] Re: [YCCC] LoTW Problems for Beta Testers !!!

[Ted Demopoulos]

I just used Start Button->Control Panel -> Add/Remove programs to blow 
away the old version.
Then I got rid of my old certs with the new app.

Both of these were not strictly necessary, as it works FB just loaded 
over my old beta version fine as well

You should, however, delete your old certificates since they are no longer valid. (To delete a certificate, click on the certificate in TQSLCert, then select Delete from the Certificate menu. You'll need V1.05beta or later to do this.) It also would be a good idea to delete any .TQ5, .TQ6, .TQ7 and .TQ8 files you may have on your system since they also are no longer useful.
