Best way to install next higher version of Flare?

Post by Rene Severens »

Hi,

Using Flare 8, I am looking for correct instructions to start using Flare 9.
What I am missing is a description of the correct steps to install Flare 9.
Do I have to uninstall Flare 8, and use the options to completely remove Flare 8 before installing Flare 9, or do I just install Flare 9 to the same path as Flare 8? Would be nice to read this somewhere in the documentation of these products before installing and then run into all kind of trouble that could have been prevented with just 1 line of text.

Greetings,
Rene Severens

You do not need to uninstall Flare 8 before installing Flare 9. Both versions can be installed on the same computer. Flare 9 gets installed to its own folder (provided that you accept that default location), separate from the Flare 8 installation, so it won't interfere with Flare 8 whatsoever.

Hope this helps.

RETIRED, but still fond of all the Flare friends I've made. See you around now and then!
