Upgrading from Basilisk 2022 to v2025.07.04: profile is lost

[carly]

Hi,

I used to have an old Basilisk v2022.01.27 installation in Windows 10 x64 that I gave up after the news of discontinuation some years ago. It was running in a path such 'C:\Portable\Basilisk' folder.
I have just discovered Basilisk is live again! So I downloaded that latest 2025.07.04 x64 Windows setup and ran it checking the custom installation: I verified it would be in C:\Portable\Basilisk - again. The basilisk-20250703133404.win64.installer completed the installation regularly.

Result? Now the new Basilisk seems to run from scratch: it did not retain the history, bookmarks etc of the previous 'v2022.01.27' installation. In another words, it is not managing properly the previous profile.

Under Windows 10 x64 Control Panel/Programs & Features, now I can see the latest Basilisk 52.9.2025.07.04 (x64 en-US) installation, on top of two other Basilisk's 52.9.2020.10.28 and 52.9.2019.10.31.

- What I can do in order get a proper '2025' Basilik installation in C:\Portable\Basilisk with the previous 'v2022.01.27' Basilisk settings, please?

(Eventually, I can restore the previous ('2022') C:\Portable\Basilisk' folder from a backup, if needed).

Thank you,
carly

IMPORTANT!

The vendor name for Basilisk has changed. If you recently updated you may notice that none of your bookmarks or extensions transferred. See the instructions below.

On Windows: Copy %appdata%\Moonchild Productions\Basilisk to %appdata%\Basilisk-Dev\Basilisk



Now, everything is fine.
