Downloaded Hot Sauce straight from this site before? The App Store version replaces your existing copy in place — there's nothing to delete. After installing, quit Hot Sauce from the menu bar and open it again to pick up the new version. Your settings — language and launch at login — don't carry over, so set them once more.
