Open 1.1.18 without -no-remote Result: 1.1.18 opens independently. Test 2 1. Open 1.1.18 without -no-remote 2. Open 2.0 with -no-remote Result: 2.0 opens independently Test 3 1. Open 2.0 without -no-remote 2. Open 1.1.18 with -no-remote Result: 1.1.18 only opens a new 2.0 browser window and does not start independently Test 4 1. Open 1.1.18 with -no-remote 2. Open 2.0 without -no-remote Result: 1.1.18 only opens a new 1.1.18 browser window and does not start independently Got it.

It is never a good idea to state your question in the subject line only. The better procedure is to write a descriptive subject line, then state your question in full in the body of the message. Just install it. Sorry if this seems elementary, but specifically, how do I install 2.0 without interfering with 1.1.18 or anything else? Right now, 1.1.18 is in the folder C:Program files\Mozilla.org\Sea Monkey. Do I just install 2.0 in another folder Program files\Sea Monkey? That is exactly where it installs by default. It does not overwrite 1.1.18. Tony's point about desktop shortcuts is well taken.

Just install it. SM 2.0 installs to a different location then SM 1.1.18. Installing SM2 does not overwrite SM 1.1.18. The profile migration wizard does not remove your 1.1.18 profile. It copies the data to a different location. Form that point you have two different profiles, one for 2.0 and one for 1.1.18. If you prefer not to have the wizard migrate your data, simply shoose to import nothing. A new blank profile will be created for 2.0.

There are some errors in formatting in certain folders that I do not want carried over, plus I have too many things I just don't want to lose! One thing I will recommend is this: before installing 2.0, rename the desktop icon to Seamonkey 1.1.18. If you do this, then you will be able to launch 1.1.18 from your desktop. Otherwise, 2.0 will cause the desktop icon to point to its location and not the older version. And as Mr Jones suggests, say NO to the import wizard and then manually import those items you want in 2.0. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Or i start SM2 a second time in another profile, also whith -no-remote, when i want to check something.

I sometimes do run two different things even if they are related.

Lee I would take a much more prudent approach, since it is a fact that the migration wizard does not always start and give you a choice: Personnally, I have never seen it appear upon SM2 install. And even if it does, the possibility of interference with your SM1 cannot ruled out. Better be safe than sorry. As I have stated in a different thread, it is wize to make a back up of both SM 1 profile *and* installation folder, the latter because it may contain add-ons which by design or customization did not install in the profile folder. Just zip those folders, making sure the path is saved along with the file (check the option in your zip program). Then, and only then, go ahead, you are safe in case actually SM 2 messes up your SM 1 installation, as it did for me (admittedly, my installation is heavily customized, so this was something I expected). -- John Doue ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
