Upgrade FAQ

What is the upgrade policy?

Free upgrades to the SwordSearcher program file are made available for point releases. (See above-right.) For example, if you have version 4.7, you can download a free update to version 4.8 that will update the program file. Free program file updates do not include updates to the module library. To get new library modules, you need a full library update.

Current customers of SwordSearcher qualify for a significant discount on new Deluxe Edition CD-ROMs (or full-version download); see above.

Please note that the SwordSearcher Deluxe library is unified. Instead of charging for each new library resource individually, the entire library is included for one price.

Is a free upgrade available for version 4 or 5 to version 6?

Sorry, no. Free program file updates are only available for point releases. Please consider purchasing 6.1 at the upgrade price.

Can user modules from older versions be used in SwordSearcher 6?

Yes! If you...

...have SwordSearcher 3, SwordSearcher 6 can import your User Note Sets. Use the import item on the User menu in SwordSearcher 6.

...have SwordSearcher 4, SwordSearcher 6 can import your User Commentaries and Books. Use the import item on the user menu in SwordSearcher 6.

...have SwordSearcher 5, SwordSearcher 6 will automatically retain your User Commentaries and Books when you upgrade. There is no need to import!

Do I need to uninstall before I upgrade?

Generally, you do not need to uninstall your old version. If you have SwordSearcher 5, SwordSearcher 6 will perform an automatic in-place upgrade, which will replace your old version and retain your user modules and any third-party modules you may have. If you have SwordSearcher 3 or 4, SwordSearcher 6 will install separately from your existing installation and you can uninstall the old version.
