I just tried to upgrade one of my sites from 8.04 to 9.2 but get this error when i click the upgrade button and had to revert to backup:

I got this upgrade to run after some experimentation. I got a successful upgrade from 8.04 to 9.01 but the same error from 9.01 to 9.02. I ended up deleting the current v7 Newtonsoft.Json file from the BIN folder and rerunning the upgrade and it worked. I have no idea what implications upgrading like this has for the site going forward however.
