If you have an existing OpenEdge or Progress installation, you might want to save certain pieces of it to simplify configuring your new installation. If you want to continue using any templates, customized procedure or code files, or a progress.ini file, you must copy them to another location before you begin the new installation.

Progress Software Corporation strongly recommends that you thoroughly examine and review your existing installation before you make any changes. The tasks to plan and save a current installation will vary, depending on several factors.
