Ventoy upgrade

If a new version of Ventoy is released, you can update it to the USB drive. It should be noted that the upgrade operation is safe, all the files in the first partition will be unchanged. Upgrade operation is in the same way with installation. Ventoy2Disk.exe and Ventoy2Disk.sh will prompt you for update if the USB drive already installed with Ventoy.
This statement does NOT tell the whole picture. It SHOULD state that the user doing the upgrade MUST know what options was used before in a prior release, if  behavior is to continue as before!

It should go on to strongly state that If you DONT remember those options you run the risk of unexpected behavior where one is agonizing to explain.

VENTOY must, at some time in its future, begin to adopt a configuration file that is saved when the USB is created. This would make the upgrade option consistent from release to release because the upgrade could see the current options and carry them forward...unless overridden.
Smile Happy to learn how to ...
