No problem. I’d like to edit my original post, though... I had some quirky behavior after upgrading in this way, so I wouldn’t recommend it. If you go through your folders in /assets, you may discover newer versions or newer folders in the other snippets, plugins, modules directories, and you’ll have to copy those to your web server. I had some problems because my FTP client OVERWRITES everything (i.e. it deletes folders). What would have saved me (I think) would have been an FTP client that could have MERGED the older install with the newer files.
Which FTP client is that? I assume you looked for an option setting and didn’t find one?
Would that by any chance be the TRANSMIT FTP CLIENT ??
I use interspire software for shopping cart software and they warn against using that for the above reason.

I’ve used CyberDuck... Coda has a nice FTP client built-in, and I think it handles merges. Odd... they’re the same people who make Transmit.
I use the very old freeware version of WS_FTP LE. It’s not a settable option, but it never overwrites existing directories, just the files in them. It also has the option to force lower case for the remote files.
