DesktopX and DesktopX Professional both showing installed in Impulse...
Do I need to Uninstall the free one?
Saturday, March 27, 2010 by FombatTheGreat | Discussion: DesktopX Tutorials
The subject pretty much sums it up, but I guess I'll repeat for clarity. I bought the DesktopX pro version, along with several others all at once. I am not sure if I just went down the list and installed Everything availabe at the time through Impulse, of if both of these installs are necessary for the "package" to work.
Should I just uninstall the free one? or uninstall both and reinstall Pro? or simply leave it like it is and sacrifice a chicken to the gods to invoke otherworldly protection from personal blunders?

I would leave it, but know this. There will be a DesktopX install in C:/Program Files/Stardock/DesktopX.
This is the Pro install.
There is another install in C:/Program Files/Stardock/Object Desktop/DesktopX.
This is the non-Pro install. So make a shortcut to the first one (Pro) on your desktop to be certain you use the right one.

That's your best course of action. It won't hurt anything and Impulse will get it all straightened out eventually.
About that chicken...don't forget the mashed potatoes and gravy.
