from Lite to Pro

matelot · Post by **matelot** » 2011 Oct 07, 21:03

I have been using Lite version now I want to try the Pro version.

1) Should I remove the Lite version before installing Pro ?
2) If there's no need to remove Lite first and I install Pro - and later I decide to keep Pro version --- can I just uninstall Lite ?

thanks

The Lite and Pro versions are completely independent of each other (on windows XP or later). So, no need to un-install anything.

thanks fgagnon, I will want to uninstall Lite once I decide to keep Pro.

thanks but this begs the question : why didn't you just incorporate this tiny tool into Prof ?

I have upgraded to Prof and ran the settings transfer tool.

why is it that now when clicking xplorer2_lite.exe it launches the pro version ?

if you want to run both versions in parallel use the /P command line switch, see here for more information
