Answer 2

The best option for you might be this.

1. Make a DB backup
2. Download x-cart-4.1.8gold.tgz or x-cart-4.1.8pro.tgz from the ticket https://bt.x-cart.com/view.php?id=50230#attachments

3. Install x-cart-4.1.8gold.tgz or x-cart-4.1.8pro.tgz according to your current X-Cart edition

   3.1. Retrieve the value of the variable $blowfish_key from the file /config.php of your existing X-Cart installation and temporarily save it somewhere on your local computer. You will be asked to provide the Blowfish key later on to allow X-Cart to decrypt the data in the existing database.

   3.2. Install a fresh copy of X-Cart 4.1.8 in a new (empty) folder using the existing database's credentials

   3.2. IMPORTANT: At the step 'Preparing to Install X-Cart Database' of the installation wizard, select the check box 'Update config.php only' and enter the Blowfish key for the upgraded database

4. Upgrade the just installed X-Cart 4.1.8 to X-Cart 4.1.12 in the usual way.

As result, you will upgrade your database to 4.1.12 version.
