Upgrading SilhouetteConnect

If the computer has, or has had, a previous version of SilhouetteConnect installed, then the installer will upgrade the instance and will not replace the previous data or settings. To remove the clinical data and SilhouetteConnect settings from a computer see the uninstall instructions.

When upgrading a Standalone SilhouetteConnect to v4.4 or beyond, then when you first start SilhouetteConnect you will be asked to select which time zone your historical assessments were captured in. You will be asked to select a time zone per unit, however, for a Standalone SilhouetteConnect it is expect that all time zone selections are the same. SilhouetteCentral Upgrade for more details on why the time zone mapping is requested.

If you are upgrading a Synchronized SilhouetteConnect, it is required that you obtain the specific installer from your SilhouetteCentral instance, via https://<SilhouetteCentral URL>/install. This installer contains specific information to ensure that the data in SilhouetteConnect is upgraded in the same way as the data in SilhouetteCentral.

SilhouetteConnect v4.6 and beyond reintroduces wound state recording in Silhouette. See SilhouetteCentral Upgrade for details on how existing wounds are updated to include state information during the upgrade.

SilhouetteConnect v4.12 and beyond changes where data is stored on the PC, from a global (all user) shared location to a per-user location, see SilhouetteConnect File Storage and Backup. The first user to run SilhouetteConnect will have any previous data moved to their user profile.
