Important changed from V4 to V5

When installing V5 on a V4 DDP the file system is converted to a DDP directory database so one can not go back to V4.

With V5 desktops drivers connected to a V5 DDP the volume or folder volume is created in the DDP and does not exists in the DDP anymore.

V5 installer is still on default regarding the unicode characters. When this needs to be changed the database needs to be deleted and newly generated; with the new setting. The database can be deleted via service connection or via commands.

(only needed for symlinks) Be aware that before installing V5 you need to install V4.01.019 first and mount ddpvolume or at least one folder volume and do recalculate and wait for the recalculate to be finished before unmounting and then installing V5
