hi,
I am still using 0.93.3 version for both online and offline wallets of Armory in conjuction with bitcoin core 0.11.2 and would appreciate any recomendations for smooth migration from 0.93.3 to 0.96 on Win 10 machine
On you online machine, upgrade to Bitcoin Core 0.14.1 and Armory 0.96.0.1-testing. To install, just download and run the installers, you don't need to do anything else. Once both are installed, go to the Armory datadir and delete the folder named databases. Your offline machine does not need to be upgraded as long as you only use the p2pkh address type.
why 0.96.0.1-testing but not just 0.96? I do not like the word testing. And one more Q. Is it mandatory for me to migrate or I can continue to enjoy bitcoin with 0.93.3 ?
