Yes, I upgraded from A04 to A06 yesterday evening and even though the description on Dell's website still claims that one can restore a previous THIS DOES NOT WORK, i.e. exactly as with the previous update from A01 to A04 the backup utility claims the backup was made on a WM 2003 SE device (which is clearly wrong) and refuses to restore the file. So you are back to point zero and have to REINSTALL EVERYTHING FROM SCRATCH!.
