Started with LiveCode Community 6.01 but after a number of updates I now have 6.01, 6.02, 6.1 (rc 2) & 6.1 (rc3).
Do I need them all or can I delete all but the most recent?

Re: Multiple Versions of LiveCode
Hi Pip,
all these are "Developer Releases" and/or "Betas"***, so wait until the final (GM = Golden Master)
of 6.1 comes out and load and use THAT version
*** Means NOT neccessary stable!

Re: Multiple Versions of LiveCode
When the Gold Master is released, can I then delete all the other versions?
Re: Multiple Versions of LiveCode
Yep, unless you want to keep them for erm... sentimental reasons 
Re: Multiple Versions of LiveCode
Hi,
seems that 6.1 Gold (6.1.0 Build 2005) is out now, but it still makes problems in Win7-64:
As soon as you uninstall the prev versions you lose the file binding. (i.e. A .rev file isn't associated anymore)
So starting a .rev gives you the question "What program to use to start this with?"
Finding the most fresh LiveCode*.exe doesn't work, LiveCode will not show up in the dialog after selecting.
Obviously since a few updates the new versions are installing properly, but not registering themselves with Windows anymore.
Once (rc 2?) I managed to get back my file associations with heavy editing of the registry, but with a new version coming out every other day I'll not do this this often.
Here seems to be a Win-Problem. Reading the install-log I see only setting uninstall-values in the registry, but no new registering of the new .exe.
Didn't write a bug report because of business overload yet. Do I have to do, or can help someone else? I'm really busy atm ...
Have fun!
