Uninstall DP8

Hey guys, I just upgraded to 9, how do I uninstall 8, thanks !

Drag it to the trash. You can look for plists in your Library/Preferences but trashing it should do the trick in terms of the general process. You can also leave it in place with no liability. I still have several version of DP handy just in case. Sometimes opening older files in the original version preserves the VIs and other assignments which may have changed.

No reason to remove it unless you really need the drive space. Unlike DP 7 and earlier, there is no uninstaller.

Do not remove any of the supporting files — or rather, if you do, be prepared to reinstall DP 9 again.

While I'm on the subject, if you run the uninstaller for any of the 32bit versions of DP such as 5, 6 or 7, it will remove critical components required by 8 & 9. So, when you're done, reinstall 9 (or 8 if that's what you are using).

Thanks guys, needed the space on my 1st drive. Trashed only the program. Have 8 and 9 on a 2nd backup drive.
