I just saw the new release and I have downloaded it.
Can I just upload it to my blog, without losing anything ? or do I have to do something first ?
thanks in advance

If you're using FTP, you should be able to unzip and upload PlatformPro files replacing existing files.
If you're using the wordpress install feature:
Switch your theme to default theme.
Using file manager or ftp, rename PlatformPro theme folder to something else (PlatformPro_old)
Use WP to install new platform Pro.
Reactivate Base Theme.

If you've made all your changes in PlatformBase, and you upgrade PlatformPro, then no, your settings won't be reset.
as a safety feature, you can always back up your site first (always a good idea anyway), and you can also export (save) your settings and then reload them once the upgrade is complete.
