I want to move EMDB to a new computer or want to reinstall Windows. How can I keep my database?
Create a backup of your database and all thumbnails to a safe place (other hard disk, network drive or memory stick). This can be done in the Database section of the Options dialog. After installing EMDB on another PC or reinstalled Windows restore the backup (using the Restore button in the database section of the options dialog).

I can not add or edit movies as the Add / Edit dialog does not fit on my screen.
You are probably using large fonts (125%). You can switch the Add / Edit dialog to use a tabbed view to fit on the screen. You can enable this feature in the General section of the Options dialog

Yes. Just install the new version. Don't change the default location provided by the installer. This should be same location the current version of EMDB (and your database and thumbnails). The database will be completely available in the new version.
