Hi, since I upgraded to Studio 2017, I never desinstalled the older version (still have 2011 for example), can I delete or desinstall these no more used versions without any problem? Thanks

Hi Christele Corbic,
You can uninstall previous versions with no ill effect on the latest version. Unless you have individual licenses for them still, you won't be able to reinstall them.
Uninstall them individually via Control Panel > (Programs >) Programs and Features > Uninstall
Once you have removed them, reboot your PC then run a Windows Repair on all the components of the current SDL products in the programs list.
- via Control Panel > (Programs >) Programs and Features > Repair
You highlight each program one at a time and select the uninstall or repair function, either from the top toolbar or by right-clicking and selecting from the dropdown menu that appears.
Hope this helps!
All the best,
Alison

Hi Christèle,
It's useful to perform a Windows Repair after any major update or installation. I usually repair after big Windows updates, for example. I do this for the Office software as well, when I remember...
It can smooth out incidental effects caused by changes to the software itself or to other software. A bit like rebooting the PC after an installation.
So, it's not essential but it will help the program to run more smoothly.
All the best
Alison
