Mary If that doesn't work, I think I'm in Big Trouble!

 Mary, delete the thebat.exe then run the 3.5 installer - select
 the repair option - that will work...

Just to confirm... this is the way to go. Note: you may not see the
repair option. If not, just reinstall.

Thanks for all the advice. Every day's a school day. Unfortunately I
couldn't read it while still in v. 3.5.0.14, because it gave me AVs
instead of opened messages.

Another time I will follow your suggestions. We learn by doing. LOL

I love this!

 You're not wrong Mary - glad you got it all sorted!

Well, I don't know what harm I may have done by using XP Restore,
since it conserves all your data and is reversible. It may be that it
fragments folders and files more to do that.

Anyway, in the future, I'll just remove or rename thebat.exe before
trying to do a downgrade msi install.

TB! Beta testers are the greatest! :thumbup:

 Another useful tip... make a copy of thebat.exe in your TB! folder
 before upgrading, e.g. thebat-3.5.11.exe. I usually keep a few
 different versions there.

I have some in my Downloads folder and some in my Downloaded Set-Ups
folder. All the rars of the last beta/RC series are still in my Temp
file. I particularly like v. 3.0.2.10.

I didn't know that my TB! folder was a good place to keep previous msi
files. (I put 2.12.00 in Downloaded Setups, just in case I started
hating 3.xx too much, and it's still there. LOL. 3.0.1.33 is also
there.) The May 13 3.5 is in Downloads. Today's 3.5.0.14 msi I put
under C:/Mary, which has only two folders in it. But I think I'll go
delete it now!! I put 3.5.0.14 there so it wouldn't overwrite 3.5 when
I got it after Maxim's offer of it today.
