I have just installed Version 5.2.13 on a second PC and would like to upgrade from version 4.25 on my original PC. Can I just install the new version? Is there anything I need to do first, such as using "file-suspend" to force a stop of current work -- or at least "file-run based on preferences" to stop current work? I have an 18% complete climateprediction work unit that I don't want to lose.

Exit completely and then install. I actually don't bother with stopping the old version and am normally ok. Exiting completely adds a little security though.
