<p>When you get two icons, does the latest open the right dataset?</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/494661462021-11-03T04:25:53Z2021-11-03T04:25:53ZMD 2022.2 (4060) installs new instance<div><p>Windows 10<br>
I only have 1 icon. That icon opens the old version.</p></div>Mark Lasbytag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/494661462021-11-03T05:15:01Z2021-11-03T05:15:01ZMD 2022.2 (4060) installs new instance<div><p>I'm a fellow user.</p>
<p>The only time I have seen Moneydance not ask about updating is when I have mixed 32 an 64 bit versions, it is possible you have mixed versions?</p>
<p>You can check to see where Moneydance has been installed to it should be in either "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)"</p></div>dwgtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/494661462021-11-04T04:03:19Z2021-11-04T04:03:19ZMD 2022.2 (4060) installs new instance<div><p>MD 2022.1 (4058) is in Program Files (x86) only. The installation file that I used for MD 2022.1 (4058) is Moneydance_windows_amd64.exe. That is supposed to be the 64 bit version, correct?<br>
When I start to install MD 2022.2 (4060) it wants to install in Program Files.<br>
Should I uninstall both versions and install MD 2022.2 (4060) in Program Files?<br>
How do I save my settings and license during this process?</p></div>Mark Lasbytag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/494661462021-11-04T06:09:12Z2021-11-04T06:09:12ZMD 2022.2 (4060) installs new instance<div><p>Based on what you say it looks like it is a mixed installation so that explains why you did not get the option to upgrade - the 64 bit version will not upgrade a 32 bit installation.</p>
<p>The only environment where I would have both installed is a test environment.</p>
<p>For normal use I would do what you have suggested and uninstall both versions and then install the 64 bit version. This process will not touch any data or preference files, but to be safe you can make a backup of your data files and if you like save a copy of your config.dict file, or indeed just take a copy of the .moneydance folder and everything under it that is in your home folder.</p></div>dwg
