Upgrading Virtual Box

Probably a stupid question. I just received note of the newer version of VB (4.2.10). Are there any particular instructions to upgrade from my previous version, or it is simply double click the upgrade package? Thanks.

I've never done anything else and have had no problems through maybe 4 or 5 updates on 3 different hosts.

Famous last words...
Standard advice is to uninstall the previous version when upgrading to a new major version. Backing up your VMs should never be necessary, but it's
always a good idea, so that question is moot.
