If you already have qGo installed on your computer, you can download the smaller update package: qgo-(version)-winupdate.exe . This file is much smaller, as it does not contain the qt library. You can simply install this package over an existing qGo installation, just make sure you choose the same installation directory. The qt library file will stay. This update package is provided to save people with a slow internet connection some download time. | |
