Keeping existing plug-ins during install of 1.3.13

Post by Okieman » Mon Apr 18, 2011 3:30 am

I'm about to upgrade from 1.3.12-beta (Unicode) to 1.3.13. In my Windows/Programs folder, the Audacity folder has a sub-folder for plug-ins. Will these remain in place during the upgrade install, or do I need to move them out of the way before the install and put them back after the new version is installed?

Move them out of the way, or rename the existing plug-in folder before you update Audacity.
I usually just rename the folder as "plug-ins-old", then copy plug-ins over from "plug-ins-old" to the new "plug-ins" folder after updating.
