Keep older version and install new version

I run 3 .0 .2 I also have 3 .5 .1 installed which I do not use . I do not want to lose

3.0 .2 I want to install the latest version getting rid off 3 .5 .1 but still keep 3 .0 .2 Thanks

Just move it into a differently named fold in you C:\Program Files folder.

E.g. call the folder Audacity 3-0-2

Then you can install the latest version into C:\Program Files\Audacity as normal

Thanks Pete out me depth here 302 is in the 32bit prog x86 files 351 is in Prog files which I believe is the 64 bit one? would that mean the new version would just over ride 351

Ensure new version has a portable settings folder, otherwise the different versions will share settings, with disastrous results.

Sorry, I forgot that 3.0.2 was just 32-bit - so no I don’t think that installing 64-bit 3.5.7 in Program Files would overwrite the 3.0.2 version in Program Files (x86).

But just to be sure I would still rename the folder tat carries 3.0.2 in the x86
