Installation of 0.9.2 is not upgrading from earlier version #86

Closed ThinkEV closed 1 year ago

ThinkEV commented 1 year ago

I had 0.8.4 installed and the installation of 0.9.2 resulted in two versions being installed. Removing 0.8.4 worked, removing 0.9.2 afterwards failed.

How do I manually remove all installations? New installations should uninstall earlier versions and do a clean upgrade.

Now I managed to uninstall 0.9.2, and installed 0.9.0 again.

When printing one document, It gets printed 6 times!! I need to manually repair this, but where do I have to look?

ThinkEV commented 1 year ago

I was able to uninstall it. I had to start "printmanagement.msc" and manually delete the CLAWMON: port. If it is denied, restart the print spooler manually and retry.

@ThinkEV Apologies for the issue. This should not happen in future upgrades. Version 0.8.4 was quite outdated and many stuff has been changed since then.
