What is the proper way to install everything and then update it from
time to time?

The setup.exe program says it's to be used for installs and updates
but only seems to know how to install, reinstall or uninstall.  Nothing
specific to updates, unless I missed it.

Problem is that every few `install's, setup hoses X so it won't run.
Is there an easy fix for this?  Or best not to update?


Thanks

Richard
