Your question is not totaly clear, you want to install the software and then rebuild your computer to install Live 6 again???

Hello,

Each upgrade or update is a full version, so there is no need to install version 5 before, if you don't need to use it.

If you purchase the box version, you get the EIC, a collection of multi-layered sample programs that ae loaded with Simpler. If you purchase the download version, you can later on get the EIC:
