=== 1: SIMPLE OVERWRITE APPROACH===
Unzip the MX download (from [[Software]] for latest version or from https://github.com/cumulusmx/CumulusMX/releases if you want an earlier release version) so the folder '''CumulusMX''' is the same folder as that which has "Cumulus.
Your [[Category:Log Files|log files]] in the data folder and any NOAA reports you may (they are optional) have created in Reports folder are available to MX. You should read the page in that log file link, as you might need to edit some items in the '''.ini''' files. For the '''.txt''' files, you need to check that all lines are consistent in using the same character to separate the 3 parts of the date, and the same character is used throughout to separate the items in list of fields.
*Cumulus 1 will accept any character (except space, a digit, or the character used to separate fields in a list) as a separator for the date parts
* MX will only accept the character defined in your locale (for a Windows
*There is a Clock and Region section in Control Panel and in the Region window you '''define the separator MX will use in the Short date item''', most easily by clicking additional settings).
*Now ensure that is same character as used in al lines of your .txt log files.
