mattkhan:
another thing that didn't go smoothly

* on reboot, both MC31 and MC32 started up
* on uninstall of MC31, it uninstalled the WDM driver
* on MC32 reinstalling the WDM driver, the UI hung.

When I installed v32, the installer did not find the library on a NAS that v31 was using.

I've raised this before. I have a main "server" installation of MC in my study where all the FLACs are stored and 4 client installs around the house on mini PCs and a laptop.

The scheduled backups work well on the server, but the clients have settings for EQ etc. that are specific to the rooms in which they are located. These get tweaked from time to time so a manual backup has to be done as mattkhan describes.

The background backups that happen on a schedule for the server run fine, but the same kind of scheduled backups for the settings on all clients should be implemented as a priority IMO.

lboregard:
- my library was gone (had to back up library from 30 and restore it on 32 🤷‍♂️)

- all of my shows covers, each season series cover are gone 🤷‍♂️

the last one is quite painful, not sure i will restore of all them by hand :(

also, looks like 32 has a new layout of the ui, which was blown away when i had to restore my library :(

JimH:
lboregard,
What OS?

When you restore a library, MC will ask if you want to restore settings.  Maybe you missed that step.
