Just a question:

Why does the installation of a new version overwite quickres.ini? Or the 
uninstallation of the previous version erase it?

With every new version, I have to restore it.

Yes, I agree with that. The same could be said for povray.ini I suppose 
where the list of paths is given.

This time.
Installing the beta 34 preserved that file as well as pvengine.ini.

Both used to get whipped during the update process.
