Upgrading and downgrading
|

|
|
|
=========================

|
How to Upgrade
|
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
|
|
|
|
|
shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
|
|
|
|
|
installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or
|
|
|
|
|
bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).

Downgrade warning

### Downgrade to a version < 0.12.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because release 0.12.0 and later will obfuscate the chainstate on every
|
|
|
|
|
fresh sync or reindex, the chainstate is not backwards-compatible with
|
|
|
|
|
pre-0.12 versions of Bitcoin Core or other software.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to downgrade after you have done a reindex with 0.12.0 or later,
|
|
|
|
|
you will need to reindex when you first start Bitcoin Core version 0.11 or
|
|
|
|
|
earlier.
