Your question is confusing.  This is the video editing, user to user, forum for Premiere Elements. 

What "full version" did you purchase?  Are you asking about Organizer?

What is the "windows version"?

Installing different versions will not erase what you have.

I misplaced my post, should have been in Photoshop elements, not premiereelements,sorry.

As for the the windows version, I originaly installed the trial version from the microsoft store but purchased my license through the adobe site....this is like if it was2 different versions of the same software!
