Is it compatible to the old release v0.9.6.0 just overwrite and everything is good to go? Or do I have to resync the blockchain and import my wallet?

@shadow1117
The version 0.9.6.1 is compatible to all 0.9.x versions of the wallet without re-sync of the wallet.

Still you should backup your wallet.dat or at least your private keys before updating.

Better safe than sorry

Generally the rule os, that all 0.x.* versions are BC compatible and don’t need a re-sync while 0.x.* need a re-sync when updating to 0.y.*

Thanks to everyone who helped, read about or encouraged the new release.
