Uninstalling VS X8

Post by WPowissr »

I have recently purchased and installed VS X10. I had been using VS X8 and would like to uninstall it. I would like to keep all of the files that I have generated in VS X8. Will the uninstall of VS X8 affect those files?? Thanks!!! :?: :?:

Uninstalling VS never removes any files created or used by that version. If you want to remove everything, there is a removal tool for X8 at http://forum.corel.com/EN/viewtopic.php ... 86#p329686

At the same time I should note that there is no need to remove X8 just because you have X10 unless space on your hard drive is a problem. Some of us keep several versions on the one computer. There are no conflicts. And some people do so because they find it is sometimes useful to have a backup video editor in case something goes wrong with the later version.
