Upgrade Apps

[Z-GrimV]

Hi Folks,

Curoius as to best approaches for upgrading Apps.  Should legacy versions just be unistalled when installing a new version?  I end up having multiple versions of each release on my machine as it's just a bit of a pain in the neck to always uninstall the old and install the new.  Is there an option on Creative Cloud that I'm missing that allows old versions to be removed when installing updated versions?  Prime example is I have Illustrator 24.3 and 24.1.2 installed and want to now install 25.4.1 but it's just not clear anywhere on ways to best manage this.  Should I unistall both of those 24 version and then install 25.4.1? The order in which they are unistalled likely isn't a problem, just the fact that having all these legacy itterations on my machine is pretty annoying.

FYI when posting that the topics available were File Sync, Collaboration, Libraries and Cloud Storage Web Assets so I selected Libraries...erm so not sure what that's all about.

generally, you shouldn't uninstall a previous version until you're sure the new version does everything (ie, works with your peripherals, has no unacceptable bugs etc) you want. 

a prudent approach would be to always have the current and one previous version.  eg, if you do that, you'll have two versions on your computer;  the current and a previous version.  then when a new version is offered (if there's been no reason to use that previous version), uninstall that previous version when installing the new version.
