Upgrade NSIS - upgrade on top of existing installation or uninstall first?
When upgrading NSIS, should a full uninstall be done first before upgrading, or can you install on top of an existing installation?

Thanks

If the NSIS installer finds that NSIS is already installed it will offer to uninstall the old version (in fact it recommends that the old version is uninstalled before the new one is installed).

Note that if you have added extra plugins to the main "Plugins" folder these extra plugins will be removed when the old version of NSIS is uninstalled.
