Updating TightVNC procedure

you should be able to upgrade without uninstalling. If it is still an issue, it is the vnc software issue .

Thanks. No issue. Just wondering if there was a preferred protocol. I have some software that deletes custom settings if uninstalled first. And other software that needs to be uninstalled before a new version is installed.

Speed, Uninstall and install is more clean but, If the uninstall process is buggy then it could make it more complicated. so no real right answer. 
Thank you!
