Instructions
------------
You are strongly advised to make a copy of your existing setup before applying this upgrade. I take no responsibility for any loss or damage caused as a result of applying this upgrade. I have applied this to my personal v0.19 copy (which had been previously partially upgraded as new releases came out) without problems.
Open the archive (Upg019-020) and copy the !AnUpg020 found inside onto your
hard disc. Run it. Drag your !Acornet into the window which appears, as
directed, and click on OK. After a while you should be told that the upgrade
has completed.
Do not run the configurer after upgrading - this should not be necessary and will potentially reset everything, loosing your settings.
