I currently have LabVIEW 2011 installed and working OK on my laptop. Each quarter it seems like we receive a new set of DVDs from National Instruments. Presently we were sent a package of DVDs for the first quarter of 2012. Should I simply use these DVDs and reinstall them over the present LabVIEW installation, or should I remove the current version before installing the new updates from the new set of DVDs. If I currently have MAX configured for a group of devices and tasks will they remain the same without the new installation erasing them? Also, I have a couple of tools,like the code capture tool, circular buffer, etc installed on the laptop, will they still be in the new updated installation or will I have to go back and reinstall these tools?
