Version update (M)

Ancestris is already installed on your device, but for some reason, you need to reinstall it.

There can be two reasons for this.

• a new version is out and you want to upgrade
• there was a modification to the software, or to your device, and you need to reinstall the version you had from Ancestris's servers.

In either case, you will certainly preserve your customizations. In general, that is indeed possible.

If you do not have any personal settings, just follow the previously described steps for a new installation.

Upgrade or reinstall version 11
