I am familiar with your warning recommendations, but have not had a problem when doing this in the last year, but unsuccessful getting the xml file now. I hoped to avoid a full upgrading. Been using JMRI for a more than 10 years, but I don't do this every day. I just changed DCC systems and have everything working fine at this point. (If not broke - don't fix it). I have run into issues before when upgrading. I still use an old laptop running Win XP that is dedicated to programming locomotives only. I have problems with updating Java and other things, so that is why I was hoping someone could just explain why one cannot simply download the one file from the JMRI website. I'd like to try this and if I have problems, I can always undertake the challenge of upgrading the whole program.
