TMG v 8.07 update mistake

Recommended Posts

I accidentally updated v 8.07 to the wrong (new) folder - I usually use a shortened version of "TMGvn" instead of The Master Genealogist vn." How can I uninstall just that version and not mess up the existing TMGv8? When I look at uninstall programs in Win7, it just has the one (new) version.

 

Hope I made that clear!

Uninstalling will not affect the data folders.

 

Uninstall the current version and delete the remnant program folder.

 

Download the v8.08 installer from the Wholly Genes website.

 

Install using the path that you originally used.

 

(It makes life much easier to use the defaults. Then you don't get into this sort of situation. However, in this case, your data folders have paths based on your original program folder name so the easiest step now is continue what you have been doing.)

Thanks, Jim.

Yes, I know it makes life easier, but OTOH, I don't have to remember whether there are space between the words, etc. I'm usually thinking more clearly when I do an update.
