It is usually not necessary to uninstall the
TimeSage Timesheets software
before
installing the newest version.
The installer will automatically try to suggest an appropriate installation path as the default.
This is based on the following:
- If you have an earlier version installed from within the same version series, this program location can be reused.
This means e.g. version 2.0.0 and 2.9.9 can be installed into the same directory.
- If you are installing a new major version, e.g. 3.x instead of 2.x the installation directory can not be reused.
Note: The
TimeSage Timesheets license
is
per user and not
per computer,
so you do not need to uninstall before
moving TimeSage Timesheets and data files to another computer.
Please note that support regarding this is only for
non-modified
distributions of our program.
If you did not download our software from
Microsys,
reputable download site, magazine or similar, you may be using an
altered
software copy meaning the normal uninstall instructions may not apply.
The easiest way to uninstall is using the Windows
add/remove software function
found in
Windows | Start | Settings | Control Panel | Add/Remove Software.
In the list, search for
TimeSage Timesheets. Depending on the version, the corresponding icon looks like this:
Note:
You will often need to have a user account with administrator rights to successfully uninstall.
You can configure user accounts in
Windows | Start | Settings | Control Panel | Users and Passwords.
Note:
You should close and exit the program before trying to uninstall it.
Note:
If you can not locate the uninstall item for whatever reason, it is generally safe to simply delete the files
of
non-modified TimeSage Timesheets software releases.
If you have installed both editions of Launcher software without uninstalling any, only the newest installation
is available in
Windows | Start | Control Panel | Add/Remove Software.
However, the newest installed edition either shares or automatically takes over Launcher
registry settings
and
document file paths.
This means you can easily remove the installation directory of the edition you do not want:
- Locate the directory, e.g. using Windows Explorer, into which you installed the edition of Launcher you do not want.
- Now delete it.
