i am running v. 4.43, and i'd like to install current version. i read one post that said use add/remove programs, but boinc doesn't show up there. i seem to remember that i need to uninstall something before downloading latest version, but i can't find any info in the q&A.

thanks,
lenette

You should be able to just install over the top of the old version. If you are upgrading from a version earlier than 4.20, then there was a required uninstall step.
