I'm relatively certain that backups do not include the OS, just the settings, performances, and rigs.
that is correct-the OS is not a part of the backup. I have already sent the 5.5.2 version to guitarman on sunday but have not heard back from him.
Change in profile sounds since reverbs?

Wow. I am surprised. While I expect that most rig settings would work with most os versions, I would have thought (incorrectly) that saving the os and rigs would have been the easiest and safest path.
My bad all!

Here is a sound sample. I played a chord and then changed rigs in Rig Manager. You can hear the pops for each rig change.

).I was expecting the kind of pop when I switch the KPA off, which is more audible/noticable..

Every Kemper update comes with instructions to backup your profiler prior to the update. It is really easy to do and has saved my butt before.
I am one of those who isn't having any problems with old rigs. I updated to the beta, then updated that to the release.
There were reports in the first beta of the reverb setting problem .... but again, I didn't have it.
I have certainly not heard any difference in the base tone of my rigs.... except for getting much better sounding rigs overall after using the new reverbs.
Despite this, I do believe that there are some with this problem. Generally speaking, people don't just waste their time and effort creating hate and discontent for no reason. I am confident that Kemper will find and fix the problem soon.
For those that suggest that Kemper is doing something nefarious by removing older revisions of the firmware ..... please...... get real.
Kemper is simply making sure that there are as few issues in the field as possible. This is the best way to ensure that. Having to do the validation on moving BACK to "n" number of old revisions of firmware is simply not cost effective. Making a backup of your unit before you update is an absolutely safe way of getting back to what you had since it replaces both the OS and the rigs as a single file.
Now, if I DID have issues with this release, I would still not be going back to my backup. I would simply tweak any old rigs I needed to in order to get them back where they belong. My tone sounds so much better with the new reverbs than with the old ones. Seriously, after the upgrade, I can barely stand the old verb unit in comparison. The new natural verb is so transparent and wonderful that I have modified all my old verbs on rigs anyway.
I would suggest that others do the same. There is nothing the old reverb can do that the new one doesn't do better in every possible way IMO.
As in all things ..... YMMV.
OneEng1 what is the name of the natural reverb in the menu? What should I look for?

When you use type knob( it is reverb type not preset) it is called Natural Reverb.

Hey all, there is a new beta release addressing older profiles and reverb mix. Looks like this was an issue and the top blokes at Kemper have already fixed it. We are blessed, in the software world things like this could take years to be addressed. Thanks Kemper!
Would it be better to wait for the official release to download?

I always save a copy of the previous OS , before I download the new. I believe I have all the versions I have downloaded over 6 yrs
