Copy the contents of your old config.php into your new config.php.
Upload (overwrite) all new version files over the old version files When you are done uploading, delete /install/install.php.
In your browser, run h t t p://yoursite/install/upgrade.php.
Note: if you have done any mods requiring file edits, they will disappear when the new version is installed, so be sure you have instructions handy on re-doing those mods.

Hi Grinderhand, I got the same question too.
I got confused about:
So can I re-use the "config.php" of my current install? I mean like:
1) Copy the current working "config.php" to v3.8.2, before uploading them to the web server (thus overwrite the default one with v3.8.2).
2) As the rest of your instructions.

Yes, you could probably do that as long as there are no changes between the config.php's of the different versions. I always just make a new one as a precaution because I'm too lazy to check for differences.
