  • Uninstall first with Windows 10?

    When I downloaded 12.5b2 for OSX there was a Uninstall program I ran before the Install program.

    Just downloaded 12.5b2 for Windows and there is no Uninstall program. (b1 was installed on a new computer.)

    Should I simply run the Installer or should I manually uninstall first. Simply trying to do what BM wants done.

    Because it’s beta software it can reside next to your non-beta version. So, no reason to worry about running the uninstaller.

    I dunno about that. I would not try to run Resolve 12.5 next to an existing non-Beta Resolve 12. The project database structure is going to get affected no matter what, unless you have two boot drives and two separate locations for project databases (or are using a SQL database instead of a disk database).

    does windows not ask (or tell you) to uninstall the previous version when you start the install process?
