Kopie von Working with older versions of oXygen

Created on Jul 23, 2015

When you install oXygen using the Marketplace, usually the newest version is installed, and it will be included in the usual update mechanism. If you would like to stick with an older version of oXygen, the following steps will help you:

Undoing an Update

You can undo a TextGridLab update and revert to an earlier version by the following steps:

  1. Save your unfinished work – TextGridLab will be restarted in the following steps.
  2. Open the About TextGridLab dialog from the Help menu (or, on Mac OS X, from the TextGridLab menu).
  3. Click the Installation Details button.
  4. Select the Installation History button.
  5. In the upper list, select the update level you wish to restore. The list below shows the installation contents of this level for review.
  6. Click the Revert button and confirm the dialogs following. After a TextGridLab restart, the old version level will be restored.
