If I update the Monero GUI, do I need reinstall the blockchain?
I'm having trouble seeing the funds in my wallet so I want to update to a newer version. However the 90GB blockchain is quite large and I'm wondering if I need to install the blockchain again or does it just reuse the old one?

Will I need to update wallet and miner after the next upcoming (March 2019) fork?
I have read about the next upcoming fork planned for the block 1788000 (around the 9th of March). After that block, will I need to update the Monero daemon, the wallet, or both? And what about the miner programs?
