Hello,

I upgraded my MarcEdit installation from 7.5 to 7.6.2 and I've noticed a few (relatively minor) issues.

1. My %MARCEDIT_PATH% variable was not changed from "C:\Program Files\Terry Reese\MarcEdit 7.5", and that path no longer exists on my PC. I tried forcing it to update by unchecking and rechecking the "Set %MARCEDIT_PATH% Variable" setting, but that does not seem to have any effect.

2. The new "Ask Mabel" window does not seem to work. Specifically, the "results page" section of the window is always blank. (See attached screenshot.) 

3. A couple of other miscellaneous quirks that I noticed are: the upgrade removed my MarcEdit file associations and unpinned MarcEdit from my taskbar. These were easy for me to fix, but may be good to know for anyone managing upgrades on staff PCs.

I upgraded through the built-in "check for updates" wizard, I don't believe I chose any special configuration. I'm happy to provide any additional info that may help diagnose bugs.
