Retaining Product Designer configuration data from prior release

If you want to reinstall or upgrade Product Designer but keep the existing configuration data, then create a separate configuration directory outside the PolicyCenter directory structure. After you reinstall or upgrade Product Designer, edit launchPD.bat to point to the separate configuration directory.

Important: Commit your change lists before you reinstall or upgrade Product Designer. If you do not commit your changes then the new installation of Product Designer may not be able to read the existing change lists.
