+Upgrading and downgrading
+=========================
+
+How to Upgrade
+--------------
+
+If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
+shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
+installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or
+bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).
+
+Downgrade warning
+------------------
+
+Because release 0.10.0 and later makes use of headers-first synchronization and
+parallel block download (see further), the block files and databases are not
+backwards-compatible with pre-0.10 versions of Bitcoin Core or other software:
+
+* Blocks will be stored on disk out of order (in the order they are
+received, really), which makes it incompatible with some tools or
+other programs. Reindexing using earlier versions will also not work
+anymore as a result of this.
+
+* The block index database will now hold headers for which no block is
+stored on disk, which earlier versions won't support.
+
+If you want to be able to downgrade smoothly, make a backup of your entire data
+directory. Without this your node will need start syncing (or importing from
+bootstrap.dat) anew afterwards. It is possible that the data from a completely
+synchronised 0.10 node may be usable in older versions as-is, but this is not
+supported and may break as soon as the older version attempts to reindex.
+
+This does not affect wallet forward or backward compatibility. There are no
+known problems when downgrading from 0.11.x to 0.10.x.
