Just a reminder, when doing an install of a new version, it is always a good idea to back up your settings as well as your crucial files in the DAS directory. A fresh install isn't a bad idea, either. This ensures you have all of the new files and none of the old ones are lingering. If you wanted to do a fresh install, this is what I did: Saved my DAS Desktop. Backed up my DAS settings. Tools>Back Up Settings. It will save a file to your PC desktop. I've found that this file saves your desktop, hot key, and other settings. Copy my entire DAS directory and pasted it somewhere else. Just in case something goes awry, It's nice to have a backup of how everything was. Also, i wanted a copy of my .dsk, .cst, and .htk files. Uninstalled DAS. Restarted PC. Downloaded a fresh copy of .34 here: For IB users http://www.dastrader.com/download/fixes/DASInstallIBCO.5.2.0.34.exe For CMEG users http://www.dastrader.com/download/fixes/ETFA.5.2.0.34.exe Ran the installation. Opened DAS and logged in. Restored my settings. Tools>Restore Settings This will look for the backup file that was saved to your PC desktop. It opened my default desktop file and hot keys, but I did notice that couple of settings were off a little bit. I opened the desktop again and everything was pretty much good. I had to make a couple of adjustments to my Market Viewer, but that's it. Saved my desktop. If something isn't quite right with your desktop, you can always copy your .dsk, .cst, .htk files from that backup directory folder you made in step 3 and paste those files into the newly created DAS directory. Remember that DAS will automatically open "default.dsk" upon logging in. I hope this helps others!
