Currently, I’m using Comodo Backup version 1.0.0.1, and I saw your website promotion of version 1.0.4.337. When I checked for updates using my current version, nothing happened. (:AGY)
So if I downloaded and installed the most recent version of this program from Comodo’s website, would I have to re-enter all of my settings and backup preferences? What is the main advantage of the newer version over 1.0.0.1? I use Windows XP Home Ed., service pack 3, CD-ROM, CD-R/W, 736 MB RAM, 40 GB HD, Pentium 4 CPU 1.60 Ghz.
Thanks.

Yes you will have to re-enter all of your settings and preferences as your version does not update. This may be the deciding factor for you.
