I tried installing alpha2 over my alpha1 installation. It installed but

my user LyX2.2 folder etc.) I found the problem was the personalised
version of stdtoolbars.inc that I had in my user LyX2.2/ui directory (I
needed to change Format 1 to Format 3). It might be better to advise
uninstalling alpha1 *and* preferences (or renaming the alpha1 LyX2.2
folder) so that LyX will launch after installation.
If your file was really written in format 1, then this is a bug which should
be fixed. Please report it in trac and add the file. We introduced format
numbers in preferences files to support exactly this use case: Reusing old
user preferences with a newer version.
