Like erams in an earlier post, I installed SU2 using the Windows binaries, and it works as it should.

Now, trying to do the quickstart tutorial as well, I found that there is at least a version on github that is using deprecated config options. (ie: su2code/documentation/quickstart/[])

I appreciate that it is particularly hard to maintain backwards compatibility when the program is still in development. Apart from reading and comparing the config_options.cfg file every new version, how often do these instructions change?

I'm sure you have thought of that, and was wondering if there is a resource/file/thread that keeps track of that?

Please use the quickstart tutorial in the su2code/SU2/ repository instead, that one is up to date.
For tracking config file option changes, the config_template.cfg file in the SU2 repository is usually the best way - we try not to change them too frequently, and have an error message that will help users identify which options need to be removed or modified.

Ah very well, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the help!
