How can I have both the old version 1.9.0.196 and the newer 199 version installed at the save time?

AISBackup installing different versions of AISbackup

Post by Barry »

Hi

You may install different versions of AISBackup but they will all share the same registry settings and database files. Backups created in version 1.9 of AISBackup cannot be read with version 1.8 but backups from all earlier versions of AISBackup can be read by version 1.9.

To install AISBackup to a different folder append the release number to the destination directory, for example:

K:\Program Files\Aquarius IS Consultancy\AISBackup199

Copy the file AISBackup.key from the previous AISBackup program folder to enable the registered version of AISBackup. Be careful not to move the file AISBackup.key or the existing copy of AISBackup will 'ask to be registered' next time it is run.

An alternate way to register the new version of AISBackup is to run the program, click Open on the registration form then open the file C:\…..\AISBackup\AISBackup.key. This option will copy the key file to the correct directory.
