STEP1: Backup! Backup! Backup your entire database!

You can use your favourite SQL management program (Such as phpMyAdmin) to perform a backup of your entire SQL database. This can be used to restore all your data if something goes wrong.

1. Make a copy of the hwdVideoShare configuration files. This is not an essential step, but will save you time later. These files are located in the administrator component directory.
   

   /administrator/components/com_hwdvideoshare/config.hwdvideoshare.php
   /administrator/components/com_hwdvideoshare/serverconfig.hwdvideoshare.php
   

2. Log into the Joomla administrator and uninstall hwdVideoShare.
3. Download the latest hwdVideoShare-1.1.4 component from our website.
4. Install the file into Joomla.
5. Your video information should still exist in hwdVideoShare.
6. If you want to restore your previous settings then replace config.hwdvideoshare.php and serverconfig.hwdvideoshare.php with the backupsyou made before uninstalling the previous version.
   
7. PLEASE NOTE: If you restore your old configuration file, the new version of hwdVideoShare might have new settings. These settings will not exist in your old configuration file so you must go to the General Settings menu and click the Save button. hwdVideoShare might not function correctly until you do this.
8. Finished!
