Subject: Re: [Avid-L2] v7 Update Tip
Actually, you NEVER want to use a previous User profile with a new system.
Weird behavior is pretty typical of trying to use an old user setting with a
new system whether you import it or just let the system automatically use it
as part of an update.
I would suggest that you create a brand new user setting as soon as you have
spare time and to ditch the old setting as soon as possible.

However, I had consistent success by Importing, rather Updating. I have not
checked the impact on other settings. So there you go . . .
