Question

Can you safely uninstall prior version after and upgrade

I have just downloaded and installed the latest version of Lightroom.  During the install, the Lightroom 4 catalog was upgraded.  Is there a need to have the older version of Lightroom installed or is it safe to uninstall it now?

Regards

Harold

You should be able to uninstall now, though it is usually better to uninstall beforehand to help avoid removing anything that might be shared between the two versions.

I asked about uninstalling and that person told me to not uninstall  and move the catalog after I upgrade.   If I change the name of the file where all my pictures are stored I can just uninstall Lightroom 4 install the new version and  then re catalog my pictures? I really need to sort and organize some of them first.

Thanks
