Currently using FF 56.0.2(32) with imacros 9.0.1.2597 - on Windows 10-1903
Trying to install - imacros trial 12.6.505.4525 x64 to be used with FF
81.0.2(64) portable
Get Error - "older version of iMacros detected.... Will remove old version"
Have used iMacros / Firefox /Autoit to automate many signons and web
scraping progs.
Would like to retain ability to run old progs with existing tools while
testing New FF Browser, new iMacros trial to determine functions needed, and test
using modified autoit progs
How to install new version of iMacros while retaining old installation?
Is the installer checking register?, looking for imacros.exe?
Do not need both active at same time - so would switch environment - for
testing
New to Forums - so apologize if not clear or posted to wrong place.
Thanks for any suggestions

Hi bitpicker,
Unfortunately, iMacros does not support a side-by-side installation for versions 7 through 12.6. If you want to try out the latest while retaining your current version, it's best to test in a separate machine, either a physical machine or a virtual machine running on your current host.

Thanks for reply - will try to set up virtual machine then to install the trial iMacros
Thought I might be able to fake out with temporary path changes.

Re: Install Trial - Keep Older Version
It would be quite a bit more involved than changing paths, because of integration with IE and also registration of the scripting interface DLLs. Having a separate testing environment is the better way to go.
