OD + Version 1.1
Update!
Thursday, January 13, 2005 by badblueboy | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I intend to update OD+ to new version 1.1 but have red on the board that if updated the previous version will be overwritten and all adjustments incl. the docks (which I apparently have now 1 on the top and 1 on the right side of the desktop) will be lost. This means that all OD+ icons will have to be reinstalled and reconfigurated!?
Has anybody made this experience?

Save Your configuration and don't quit the dock before/while updating. You will have to restart windows, but You will keep Your settings.

I've yet to have my settings overwritten by an update of OD+.......... but I always save my setup using "Save theme as..." before updating, and like c242 says, I don't unload OD+.

i have had my dock wiped clean when updating OD+ before, but not this time. and i DID shut down OD+ before updating 
after the dock being wiped once before, i've always backed up my config before installing an update since then, though. btw, this update is very nice. great jobs, guys!

Like c242 and Koasati...I've yet to lose my settings after an OD+ update. I do however shut it down before updating. The key is saving your setup as a theme.
