      Hi,

      I have squid installed and the "Installed Packages" page proposes either to [Reinstall this package] or to [Reinstall this package's GUI components.].

      Could you explain what is the difference between these 2 reinstall ? How should I know which one to choose ?

      Thank you,

      Jacques

              1. No, you don't loose anything except own handmade config-changes! You even can deinstall a package, make an update of pfSense, then do a new install of the package and your settings are the same as before.
