I like to extract to a new directory in case the upgrade fails. saves me having to extract (and possibly download) the old version of what ever software I am extracting / installing.
If it works i delete old, rename to normal/what it should be and all is good.

and yeah 1000% backup wallet.dat, in multiple places. You should do this anyways every so often.

Just download core 0.9.2 from the link below your user name.

1. Close down bitcoin core.

2. Extract and overwrite the bin/32 or bin/64 directory.

3. Restart bitcoin core.

Good idea to graba copy of 'wallet.dat' before undertaking this process. If upgrade fails, try again until works then paste over new wallet.dat with old wallet.dat.  Avoid losing your coind this way
