Rollback from a patch

Is it possible to roll back from an FM12 patch?

For example, if I install 12.0.4 on 12.0.3, then decide I do not like it because it breaks something that I need, can I roll back to 12.0.3?

Or if not roll back, can I accomplish the same goal by installing 12.0.3 on top of 12.0.4?

Got the general idea?

Best,

I think the only way to roll back a patch would be if it was separately listed in your Add/Remove Programs list. If not, then you’re stuck deactivating, uninstalling & reinstalling in stages.

Unfortunately, not as far as I know - the modules are replaced and no backups of the replaced modules get stored anywhere. FM won't install an older patch over a new version, so you'll need to go back to square one and re-install FM and the number 2 and 3 patches.

What got broken with the patch? [Patches usually fix things...] The engineering team needs to know about these sorts of things that go bump in the night (i.e. unintended consequences), so the more details that you can provide, the better.
