Correct way to install an update that is an exe.

I have Dreamweaver 8.0.0 successfully running in a bottle. I would like to upgrade to Dreamweaver 8.0.2 to fix some problems with Dreamweaver. The 8.0.2 update is supplied as an exe. What is the correct procedure to update the bottle. Do I just do it as a new install but on an existing bottle?

Hi,

Typically I use the 'Run' (command in this bottle) approach -- highlight
the bottle involved, configure, control-panel, run...browse to the update
exe file, open, run....this usually gets it right (in linux)...

Cheers!

Thanks I tried it that way and also as an install. But same result it seems to go through the install process and says its successfully updated, but when Dreamweaver starts it still reports 8.0.0 rather than 8.0.2 which the native update under VirtualBox reports.

Hmmm....probably my next move would be to check the registry values
(for dreamweaver) between the virtualbox install and the crossover
install...perhaps a registry value isn't being updated?...it'd be something to check...

Cheers!
