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/Dash-Qt (on Mac) or +dashd/dash-qt (on Linux). If you upgrade after DIP0003 activation and you were +using version < 0.13 you will have to reindex (start with -reindex-chainstate +or -reindex) to make sure your wallet has all the new data synced. Upgrading +from version 0.13 should not require any additional actions. + +When upgrading from a version prior to 0.14.0.3, the +first startup of Dash Core will run a migration process which can take a few +minutes to finish. After the migration, a downgrade to an older version is only +possible with a reindex (or reindex-chainstate). + +Downgrade warning +----------------- + +### Downgrade to a version < 0.14.0.3 + +Downgrading to a version older than 0.14.0.3 is no longer supported due to +changes in the "evodb" database format. If you need to use an older version, +you must either reindex or re-sync the whole chain. + +### Downgrade of masternodes to < 0.17.0.2 + +Starting with the 0.16 release, masternodes verify the protocol version of other +masternodes. This results in PoSe punishment/banning for outdated masternodes, +so downgrading even prior to the activation of the introduced hard-fork changes +is not recommended. + +Notable changes +=============== + +This release adds some missing translations and help strings. It also fixes +a couple of build issues and a rare crash on some linux systems. + +0.17.0.3 Change log +=================== + +See detailed [set of changes](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/compare/v0.17.0.2...dashpay:v0.17.0.3). + +- [`6a54af0df7`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/6a54af0df7) Bump to v0.17.0.3 +- [`97e8461234`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/97e8461234) doc: Archive v0.17.0.2 release notes +- [`96c041896b`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/96c041896b) feat: add tor entrypoint script for use in dashmate (#4182) +- [`3661f36bbd`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/3661f36bbd) Merge #14416: Fix OSX dmg issue (10.12 to 10.14) (#4177) +- [`4f4bda0557`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/4f4bda0557) depends: Undefine `BLSALLOC_SODIUM` in `bls-dash.mk` (#4176) +- [`575e0a3070`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/575e0a3070) qt: Add `QFont::Normal` as a supported font weight when no other font weights were found (#4175) +- [`ce4a73b790`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/ce4a73b790) rpc: Fix `upgradetohd` help text (#4170) +- [`2fa8ddf160`](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/2fa8ddf160) Translations 202105 (add missing) (#4169) + +Credits +======= + +Thanks to everyone who directly contributed to this release: + +- dustinface (xdustinface) +- strophy +- UdjinM6 + +As well as everyone that submitted issues and reviewed pull requests. + +Older releases +============== + +Dash was previously known as Darkcoin. + +Darkcoin tree 0.8.x was a fork of Litecoin tree 0.8, original name was XCoin +which was first released on Jan/18/2014. + +Darkcoin tree 0.9.x was the open source implementation of masternodes based on +the 0.8.x tree and was first released on Mar/13/2014. + +Darkcoin tree 0.10.x used to be the closed source implementation of Darksend +which was released open source on Sep/25/2014. + +Dash Core tree 0.11.x was a fork of Bitcoin Core tree 0.9, +Darkcoin was rebranded to Dash. + +Dash Core tree 0.12.0.x was a fork of Bitcoin Core tree 0.10. + +Dash Core tree 0.12.1.x was a fork of Bitcoin Core tree 0.12. + +These release are considered obsolete.
