      Hi,

      I want to modify a file that is included in the daily builds. Will it be kept with my changes or overwritten ?

      thx,

        hi

        it's overwritten, or wiped out, or back to default…whatever you call it. so you might want to copy your modified files somewhere, say admin's home directory or usb key, do the upgrade then copy back to where those files were. i've been doing this for years since 1.2...

        cheers,
