We can not verify that the specific release for TWS is 10.20.1c. The only thing we know for certain is that it is the most recent "Stable" release. Apparently IB has "Beta" releases available, which you do not want.

But, we will say that the user that posted has been very helpful in this matter and we would be very surprised if that is not the correct version.

With regards to Scaling out, it sounds like you need to determine the best option for you of the settings for Trade >> General Trade Settings >> Scale Out. You will find the definitions at the following link:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Scale Out (Global Settings >> General Trade Settings >> Scale In/Out)

The information for Scale In is just above the section linked above. The option for "Even Distribution - Maintain Ratios" means that the ratio of the quantities of the existing orders will try to be maintained. For instance, if you have two attached stops with quantities of 4 and 2 (a 2:1 ratio) and you scale in a quantity of 3, you will add 2 to the quantity of 4 and add 1 to the quantity of 2, giving you new quantities of 6 and 3 (still a 2:1 ratio).
