Steps to Upgrade:

Important note: We strongly recommend that you take a backup of your entire Access Manager Plus installation folder before the upgrade, and keep the copy in a separate location. This helps you prevent any accidental loss of data, and will keep all your settings intact. If you're using an MS SQL server as the back-end database, back up the Access Manager Plus database as well before upgrading. Once the upgrade is successfully completed, remember to delete the backup.

We express our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.
