Question about installing new versions of Live
Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2012 12:28 pm
Hi, this is a fairly basic question (I hope) but I haven't seen the answer to it anywhere else.
Every time a new version of Live is released, I install it, but the previous versions are all still in my Windows Start menu. (8.21, 8.22, 8.26 etc) So, once I have installed the latest version, can I safely uninstall all the previous ones, without this affecting any of my songs written in the previous versions or any Live packs or VSTs I may have installed before?
If I have installed third party Live packs and incorporated them into my main Library, will that updated Library be preserved if I install a new version of Live and uninstall the old one?
(Are all of Live's Library instruments/files kept in a different location to "C-Program Files-Ableton-Live 8.x.x"?)
Thanks! Phil
