Thank you Micheal,
just to share my expereince to the list, in case someother newbee (feels
strange to call myself that, but here I am) passes by.
I just changed name of old folder to netbeans-28, copy the new netbeans
in place, launched nb from my desktop icon and it found setting from old
installation and asked if I wanted to import them, which I did.
Then it did some scans and eventually opened up, listing all projects
that I had open before. Only thing it didn't do was to also open the
last opened documents for me but think I can live with that.

Hi,
I'm new to Java since a few months and after various mind juggling I decided
for NB as my IDE and installed NB-28 binary release in my folder of choice,
together with OpenJDK 25 (later updated to 25.02), created Environment
variables etc. All find and dandy, and I'm bombing my mind with new info to
catch up (I'm an old VB6 developer finally throwing in the towel).
VB brings back memories since I believe one of the first times I wrote a
graphical interface it was in VB.
(it split files to floppy disk size so that I could move some larger files from
the school PC home)
Yeah those were the days... Guess I'm or was one of the last holdouts
and sure should have taken this step at least 10 years ago, but there
are always circumstances. Strangely enough, now there is what appears to
be a true VB6 replacement that looks promising, but... it still require
a lot of new learning, so decided to take on this challenge anyhow.
So, expect some really stupid questions from me ;-)
