Upgrading from Earlier Versions of @task 4

You can upgrade from the previous version of @task 4 to the current version without losing any @task data. To ensure that you don't lose your data, use the following procedure when installing @task 4. As a precaution, backup your database and your @task documents directory before starting the upgrade process.

1. Acquire a new license key and copy it over to old license key in the @task documents folder. This is only necessary for @task 4 clients upgrading from Professional to Enterprise editions.

2. Install the new version of @task to a location other than the current folder where you installed the previous version. NOTE: Do not nest the upgrade inside of the existing AtTask and AtTaskDoc folders. If you do you will not be able to run your instance of @task.

3. Run the installer, but select Upgrade Only rather then Full Install in the second screen. Please note that certain upgrades may require a full install.

4. During the install, provide the install wizard with the location of your new license key (if necessary) and the database that you have been using.

5. Delete the directory where you installed the old version of @task. The @task documents directory should not be in this folder.
