I want to use your way to upgrade to Pro version, but there is one question: all my data, as well as settings set by me personally will be transferred to the Pro version or I will have to re-configure?

Real shot! It's great. Except that it says *system not activated* in the settings. Won't it mess with my mind later on? Who knows?
