What do I need to do to go from version 8.6 to 8.7? Can I transfer some of the updates to 8.7 from 8.6 to save on redownloading them all? What is the best way to update to the newest version? Thanks.

A: As long as release notes or installation hints don't recommend other, you may unpack a new version's archive (.zip) over/into an existing structure, if you let existing files be overwritten.
Of course you may use the automatic self update functionality instead.

I'm a computer guru but that means absolulety nothing to me all that jibberish. I just wanted to know how you get the program to auto update from program?

Start a download run with updategenerator and you will be prompted if a new version is available with option to update the program.
