Unless I am missing something in the process, I have always been bothered me with the ThumbsPlus update process. Each time an update or service pack is released and I install it, ThumbsPlus uninstalls my existing version as well as my license information and custom config settings. Why?? When Adobe or Microsoft release an update they don't have me reinstall the software, re-enter the license information and reconfigure the program settings just to get back to the way I had it before? There has to be a way to install ThumbsPlus updates the same way... Make the license and custom configuration separate files if you must, but don't make me reconfigure the program. How do the rest of you handle updates? Thanks
