Parallel installation of PSP vX2, v22 (2020) and v25 (2023) possible? Separate settings?

Post by pstein »

I am not sure:

Can I install multiple PSP versions on the same Windows 10 computer without interfering each other?

E.g. can I install parallel but separately

PSP vX2
PSP v22 (2020)
PSP v25 (2023)

?

They should NOT share the same setting files/entries (in Program Data directory or Registry).

Is this possible?

Yes, they are installed parallel and separately. If you uninstall one of them, the others stay in place without issue. I have 9 versions installed on my PC without a problem. Each has its own settings.
