To avoid file or product conflicts, do not run the Update Manager and Software AG Installer at the same time.

Do not modify or remove files from the Update Manager installation directory or the <Software AG_directory>\install directory, because they have metadata that is used by Update Manager and the Installer.

Back up the Update Manager installation directory regularly, in synchronization with your regular backups of your Software AG products. These backups ensure that Software AG can restore the products as well as the Update Manager metadata to a known point of time. Keep at least the latest backup so you can restore Update Manager from it.
