Upgrading

Upon HLS launch, HLS will check the download site to see if there is a newer version available. If there is, a prompt will be shown suggesting to take you there for a download. Upgrading follows almost the same procedure as installation, only you will extract the files of the ZIP on top of the existing installation.
