Hi,
I wanted to give a try to the new version but ran into problems when installing. I was using 11.0.296.
Here's what happened:
1.- Downloaded 11.1.90 from the board.
2.- Ran the installer. It found a copy of MC running and asked if I wanted the installer to close it down. Answered "yes".
3.- Once the installation completed, received a message stating that MC could not load the "default" library and asked if I wanted to load a backup. Answered yes, selected the last backup and received a message that the backup load failed.
4.- The installer asked if I wanted to create a new "blank" library (or something to that effect). Answered no. Then the installer notified that a library of a previous version was found and asked if I wanted to load it. Answered yes. The library loaded but was a very old one, probably from an earlier version 10.
5.- At this point, unsuccesfully tried to restore the latest backup and also the previous one (I have a good number of library backups stored).
6.- Installed version 11.0.296 on top of the whole thing. The installation ran OK and my "default" library was presented.
7.- Tried to restore the latest backup (the one that failed with 11.1.90) and restored succesfully.
8.- Everything seems fine with 11-0.296. Lost toolbar cutomization but view schemes, playlists, etc. seem to be OK.
Any advice as to how to proceed to install 11.1 will be very much appreciated.
