Need verification for upgrading from 5.50.0.116 to 5.50.8

I believe I know the answer to this, but just wanted to get some clarification.  Since this isn’’’’t a major update I don’’’’t need to touch the database or anything, I can just do a straight upgrade on the server without uninstalling, correct?  Also, would I need to create a new Client Config file?  I wouldn’’’’t think I would need to.  TIA

    I have already performed this upgrade, went painlessly. Upgraded in said order in the above post.

    The only question I was unsure of was do you have to upgrade the client preinstall package? I ask because when you try to install the .8 version it just asks to repair meain its using the same MSI guid.


    Hi Typhoon87,

    I didn't have to upgrade the client preinstall package. I compared the SGxClientPreinstall.msi sizes and they are identical to the byte even though their created and modified dates are different. If you are trying to run the SGxClientPreinstall.msi while it's already installed it will ask you to Modify, Repair or Remove. My advice, until you read differently (meaning the Release Notes) I'd leave it alone.
