Backing Up in Advance of TCS 2 Installation

2009-03-04 Thread Pinkham, Jim
I'm getting ready to install the TCS 2 trial that arrived (at last!) two
days ago, and I'm doing so with the awareness that's there's always the
possibility we may have to revert to our present configuration. With
that in mind, what files would you advise as essential to back up in
advance? Would you also, or instead, advise a f ull system backup first?
Any insights appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Jim

As far as I know, the only applications in TCS2 that can't be
installed multiple times are RoboHelp and Acrobat. Frame's not a
problem; you can have multiples with different revs on a system.

So those you may want to back up or ghost. However, if they're
uninstalled, the associated registry entries are likely to be
wiped so that could create a problem if you need to roll back.

Otherwise, I believe all info is stored either in the data files or
user preferences, which should carry forward.
