Replace the version of FoxTools - the 5.0 version will work most of the time, but just in case... Also, if you replace the Foxtools with a 6.0 and don't recompile, it will break when you use any of the functions which have become Fox proper, like the path manipulation things (justext(), justpath(), justfname(), forcepath() etc), because 5.0 was compiled to use them from FoxTools, and they wouldn't be there anymore. Recompiling will tell Fox to use its native functions of the same name.
