Upgrading FM8 Server/Clients to FM10 (WIN)

Hi, I am looking to upgrade a FM8 Server, as well as around 10 client machines (all Windows).

I've tried to read through the PDF that comes with the download. Is there anything to be especially careful of when upgrading? Can we install 10 on a separate drive and still leave 8 active while we move things over? What's the easiest way to get the FM8 files into FM10?

Any help would be awesome. Thank you.

No, I don't think so. And they cannot run simultaneously on the same machine.

As for the files, just pull the folders out of the FMS directory. Replace them in the FMS directory in the appropriate location when the new version is in place.

See documentation that ships with product.
