HvK Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Hi Philip,What I usual do is unzipping but install the new beta's in a seperate folder until the final version is completed. I always kept the final versions and then delete the beta's. This prevent me a lot of problems a few times. I still have the original version 3. The programs are small so I don't mind! Hopes this works next time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRR Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Philip:You can likely go back and download 4.14 and as Ken says install it in a separate folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Cox Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Philthis is my statement that JRRwas referring to i believeI must have nearly a doz beta's and final editions installed -- 3.50 is the version in the main directory on C:\Program Files\PicturesToExeby having all these versions i can switch back with no problemhttp://www.picturestoexe.com/forums//index...t=ST&f=2&t=1615ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alrobin Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 When a new version comes out, I always create a new folder (name it PTE_4-20b6, say), and copy all files from the previous working folder to it. Then download the new "zip" file with the 7 new PTE files into the new folder, replacing the same 7 files already existing in it.Finally, double-click on the new file, "setup.exe" and follow instructions, making sure that the "destination directory" is the same as the new folder you created. You can even retain the old icons on your desktop if you want to retain the older versions of the program.Some members have had problems with this procedure, particularly when installing new drives, but if you follow the steps above, you can't go wrong. If you do have problems, first make sure that the registration key, "PTE.KEY", was copied to the new folder along with the other files. Hope this helps some.

Igor Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 You even can keep all versions of PTE together in one folder Because all inside one apr.exe file. Another files don't special matter (help, translations). You can rename it into apr_v420.exe and it will work even if there will be no files in a folder.
