Upgrade and Uninstallation
Windows Operating Systems
If you would like to upgrade Kerio MailServer, please make sure that you stop the Kerio Administration Console. The other components (Kerio MailServer Engine and Kerio MailServer Monitor) will be closed automatically by the Kerio MailServer installation program. Then you can proceed with the installation of a newer version. The installation program will automatically find the directory where the current version is located and will replace appropriate files with their newer versions. All settings and messages will be retained. We do not recommend changing the destination path if you wish to retain all settings!
For uninstallation, Kerio Administration Console must be stopped. Kerio MailServer can be uninstalled by using Uninstall from the Start menu using the Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panels. It is possible to retain files such as logs and email that were created within the Kerio directories. During uninstallation a dialog will appear asking if you would like to remove these files.
