2020.2

Note
From PlanetPress Connect Version 1.2 onwards, the new version (1.1.8)of the Update
Client is included by default with all setups.
Users of Connect 1.0
Users of Connect version 1.0 cannot upgrade directly to Version 2020.2. This is because
Connect Version 1.0 is a 32 bit version of Connect.
Users must first upgrade to Version 1.1 and from there upgrade to Version 2020.2
If you are updating manually you must first upgrade to Version 1.1 before installing 2020.2. If
you attempt to go directly from Version 1.0 to Version 2020.2 the installation will fail.
Also see "Users of Connect 1.1" on the previous page for extra information about updating from
that version.
Backup existing Connect version
It is recommended that you always backup your existing Connect preferences before upgrading
to a new version. This will enable you to revert back to the previous version, in a worst case
scenario in which the new version introduces issues with your existing production processes.
Whilst the probability of such a worst case scenario is remote, it cannot hurt to take some
simple precautions, just in case.
Backing up a virtual machine
Backing up a virtual machine installation is relatively straight forward. Simply take a snapshot
of the virtual machine instance, prior to upgrading. This would save all the localized
preferences and configurations.
Backing up a real machine
Note
The scheduling settings in version 2019.2 have totally changed, making it impossible to
revert these settings back to the previous version. Please make sure to record your
