Updating 2.8 > 3.0 #483

I read in the documentation that it is safe to xcopy files to update to a new version given they are not in use.

If have a current install of redis 2.8 running, and I simply run the 3.0 MSI installer will that perform a graceful update or will it wipe out my entire 2.8 install before updating to 3.0?

Nevermind, I figured it out. In case anyone else wants to know, I stopped the redis service, stopped the windows event log service, then I copied the contents of the ZIP release into the Redis folder. Obviously you have to enter your configuration in the conf files, then start the windows event log and Redis services back up.
