does latest install overwrite the old one?

Oops, simultaneous update from madcap - yes, you can

Have a query out but in case someone here knows - Can I have two versions/instances of Flare installed?

I seem to recall you can now do this, but want to verify to make sure I don't overwrite my production instance (want to switch and start fresh with new css when there's a 'break' but rather not do it now).

Thanks for any tips

Flare 2016 and Flare 2017 variants all were contained in a "Flare 13" folder on your system, so you couldn't have multiple versions installed at the same time.

However, Flare 2018 is installed in a "Flare 14" folder on your system. This allows you to have Flare 2018 and a version of 2016-2017 on your system at the same time.

Additionally, if you have Flare 12 or older, you can install those simultaneously as well, since they are stored in version-specific folders on the system.

Ah, couldn't remember the issue but now I do - thanks!
I knew there was an issue, good to have it confirmed
