Just to clarify for others, the steps I posted above are just for bungo_pete. If you have maintained proper housekeeping, the patch will go straight over your current GWX.

Unfortunately, it is clear that the patch has highlighted poor housekeeping by some players. It is quite annoying that the patch is getting the blame and hence a negative reputation because a minority of players can't get their "house in order".

I really wish some of you guys would think before blaming everyone and everything else. The patch is doing its job by saving YOU angst later on. You can't expect that following the patch's instructions ONCE will fix the last two months (ie how long GWX has been available) of you NOT following the instructions when installing mods, or uninstalling mods, or using SH3Cmdr etc.

As has been posted elsewhere, the installer merely reports what it finds. If it finds something wrong, it's because YOU and ONLY YOU put the files there. Accept that. Fix that. And move on.

Rant off.
