I have some helpful advice when you are installing the latest release. The best method is to start clean, by uninstalling the old version and running the new one as a new install. If you don't want to lose your saved games, please do the following:

- copy the 'saves' folder and place on desktop or anywhere you deem safe
- uninstall the game, reinstall a newer version
- run the game to allow the game to create the saves directory as mentioned above
- then place the 'saves' directory back into the path above
This will ensure that the users save files will work on the newer version.
