1. Read the UPGRADE.txt document in the doc directory of the NEW installation. It might overrule the information stated on this page!!!
2. If you made manually modifications in the OLD installation, you must check if you have to make them again in the NEW installation.
3. Backup your database and all the files in your CMS Made Simple folder on the server.
4. Download the latest CMS Made Simple package. In your case you can use the files cmsmadesimple-1.9.4.2-full.tar.gz (all languages included) or cmsmadesimple-1.9.4.2-base.tar.gz (only english)
5. Upload the new files, overwriting all the files on your server.
6. Navigate to <cmsmadesimple folder>/install/upgrade.php (upload install folder if you use diff package) and check your integrity CMSMS system in step #1. That automatically makes any necessary changes in the database.
7. Delete the install folder after a successful upgrade
