ATIH2018 upgrade: uninstall 2017 first? Start new chain?
Am I right to think it would be optimal to uninstall ATIH2017 before installing/upgrading to ATIH2018? (Is there some good way to get configs and settings to persist?)
Am I correct to think it would be optimal to start a new backup chain with a Full after the upgrade?
(If relevant, my licenses are 1-time "Perpetual", not subscriptions.)

Sweet, I'm so glad I asked. (Particularly if I correctly infer from your reply that if I don't uninstall ATIH2017 first, my task config settings might persist after the 2018 upgrade.)
Thank you very much for your reply, Steve!

Your task config settings should be preserved by doing an upgrade from 2017 to 2018 but you can save a copy of C:\ProgramData\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Scripts folder contents as an extra safety measure.
Note: the Save / Import settings option does not preserve your task history / activity information so your tasks will appear as if they have not been run after importing the settings.

Success. Everything worked exactly as Steve said they would!
