Upgrading from QuickRun 1.x to SlickRun

Step 1: Run the SlickRun Installer

• We strongly encourage you to choose the default directory of C:\Program Files\SlickRun
•  We encourage you to make a backup copy of your QuickRun directory (usually C:\Program Files\QuickRun).

Step 2: Back up your old JOT

• Start SlickRun if it's not yet running.
• In QuickRun, type "JOT"
• In SlickRun, type "JOT"
• Select all of the text in QuickRun's Jot.  Hit CTRL+X.  {Cut}
• Click on SlickRun's Jot and hit CTRL+V.  {Paste}
• Close both Jots.

Step 3: Import your old shortcuts

• Type "Setup"
• Make sure you're on the "Shortcuts" tab.
• Click the "Import Button"
• Change the "Files of Type" dropdown to read "QuickRun 1.x Shortcuts"
• Navigate to the folder where QuickRun was originally installed.  This is usually C:\Program Files\QuickRun
• Choose QuickRun.dat and click "Open"
• Uncheck the checkboxes next to any shortcuts you don't wish to import
• Click "Import Selected"   

Step 4: Remove QuickRun 1.x from your Start Menu

•     Click Start | Programs | Startup.  Right-click "Run QuickRun" and choose "Delete"
•     Click Start | Programs.  Right-click the group named "QuickRun" and choose "Delete"

Step 5: Remove QuickRun 1.x from your disk

• Verify that you didn't install SlickRun into the QuickRun directory (oops)
• Type "Quit" in QuickRun. 
• Delete the QuickRun directory.  This is usually C:\Program Files\QuickRun

Geeky note:  No worries that QuickRun left trash in your registry-- When QuickRun was first written, there was no such thing. ;-)  As such, QuickRun did not use the registry, although SlickRun now does.  It's better this way, trust me!

Congratulations, you're done!
