[SOLVED] Can I upgrade from 19.1 to 19.3, skipping 19.2?

Post by Fredashay »

I'm still running 19.1 because when I upgraded to 19.2, Firefox crashed whenever I launched it. I suspect that's because of my GPU. I just installed 19.3 on a virgin hard drive on that same machine, and everything works fine. Can I put my 19.1 HDD back in that machine and upgrade to 19.3, skipping over 19.2?

If it's offered in the Update Manager it should be fine. Always make a Timeshift snapshot first. I prefer the following settings for full recovery:

I upgraded from 19.1 to 19.3 last night and everything seems to work today, even Firefox! Thank you!
