Hi,

1. I beleive license file not required to upgrade This is correct.

2. Existing installation doesn't required to be uninstall This is correct

3. If we upgrade SR10 to QV new version 12 then is it straight forward upgrade That is correct.

4.There will be no more RISK if we take back up of QLIKTECH folder will not  I would back up the QVPR folder. This holds all your Publisher task.

Hi,

There will be not screen to show up when you are running the upgrade. It will see what you have installed and upgrade those items.

The only think you need to watch out for is if you have a Qlik Service installed and disable, the upgrade will enable that service.

Hi,

Are you doing a new install or upgrade? If you are doing an upgrade the installer will match the items that are already installed. We only put Qlik files on and don't change any feature that has been installed on IIS.
