Updating the addon

When you update to a newer version of Sanctus Library, if you just install the newer version on top of the old one, some old files may not be removed properly.
To make sure this doesn’t happen, and ensure the correct functioning of the addon, we have to correctly uninstall of the previous version first.

1. Open Blender and check If there’s any version of Sanctus Library installed in blenders EDIT>PREFERENCES add-ons TAB. If there is, uninstall it using the REMOVE button.

2. Quit blender
3. Check that no folders named Sanctus Library are still in the Blender’s addons folder:
Windows: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\YOURBLENDERVERSION\scripts\addons
MAC: /Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/Blender/YOURBLENDERVERSION/scripts/addons/
LINUX: $HOME/.config/blender/YOURBLENDERVERSION/scripts/addons/
If you find any, delete them manually.

*The Sanctus Library preferences file in the addons root folder keeps all your preferences between updates, usually it can be kept unless you are having issues with the installation, in which case you can try also removing it.

4. Start Blender again and install Sanctus Library with the new version of the addon file as if it was a new installation:
Install in Blender 4.2+
install in Blender 4.1 or earlier
