Installing as an Upgrade

Installing this release as an upgrade will automatically uninstall any HotFixes of the older version of the product you have installed on your machine.

  • Before installing this release as an upgrade, ensure you create a back-up of your Enterprise Server configuration. To do this, on the Enterprise Server Administration home page, click Export and then select Export Enterprise Server configuration and Security Manager definitions. This creates a backup folder in the c:\programdata\micro focus\Enterprise Developer\MFDS. You can restore the Enterprise Server configuration after installing this release - click Import on the Enterprise Server Administration home page.
  • Visual Studio 2012 is no longer supported so it is not possible to upgrade to release 4.0 from Visual COBOL for Visual Studio 2012 3.0 or earlier.
