With regard to customization settings, these are NOT overwritten with each release of version 8. Your 7.5 settings are not automatically brought over, but once you get version 8 customized to your liking, they are not overwritten by new releases, unless you explicitly tell it to reset to System Defaults.

The full setup file must be downloaded. Because of all the additional features in v8, the setup file is much larger than it was with v7.5 Sincerely, Sherry Technical Support Legacy Family Tree On Fri, Dec 20, 2013 at 1:57 AM, Kathy Thompson <kmthoms...@gmail.com> wrote: Wondering why it should be necessary to download the full 60+MB of program and then re-install the program just to take care of an update. Reason I ask is although I do have a very large data allowance each month, not everyone is so lucky. Also, I don't recall having to download that large a file to update 7.5 (although that could have more to do with possibly no updates between my purchase of 7.5 and the release of 8) Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
