I've been using customized addons for a while and one thing I always worry about is losing my preferred layout after an update. This makes me curious about the safest way to Update ElvUI when a new version becomes available.
I'd normally want to check compatibility first, especially after a major World of Warcraft patch. It also seems sensible to preserve important configuration settings before making significant changes.
For players who regularly update
ElvUI, do you normally create a backup before installing a newer release?
I'm also interested in whether updates usually preserve existing profiles automatically or whether certain changes can require parts of the interface to be configured again.
What is your usual update routine, and have you ever experienced a problem after updating?
