Are you re-installing the OS, or just installing a new version of NW? When you
uninstall NW,
it doesn't delete the /nsr directory, so all the history remains. I've never
had a problem
with uninstalling the previous version of NW and then installing the new
version. In July, I
upgraded from 7.5.4 to 7.6.2 (on 64-bit Linux) by uninstalling the older
version and installing
the newer version.
