    Update Apps without removing previous versions CC 2017?

    Posted by Walter Stabb on September 15, 2017 at 2:52 pm

    Hi all,

    Quick question. Previously when updating apps there was the possibility, through the advanced menu of the update window, to untick the default remove previous versions. Is a similar function available in the current version of CC (which doesn’t seem to feature an Update window)?

    I am aware of the process to install previous versions, which clearly provides a work around but would rather just install new versions parallel to the previous.

    Thanks!

    When it’s a major release like 2015 to 2017 vs. a dot update / patch you get the opportunity to keep the previous version. The installer will not let you install 2017.x and keep it at that version when you upgrade / patch to 2017.x.x.
    File a feature request with Adobe to see if they will incorporate this request into their CC installers.
