Install of Application Updates
Should i be uninstalling before intalling updates to apps
Tuesday, October 9, 2012 by GigaByte69 | Discussion: Stardock Support General
Hi
I have just updated my software to the newest beta for Start8 and the release version of Fences2. Now I am seeing (images) in Stardock central installed programs list multiple entries. This is also occurring in my start/add/remove programs list.
Are the installers for updates and apps not removing previous version prior to installing newer versions? Should I be manually uninstalling these apps before updating?
After install and reboot of system, Stardock Central still shows Fences 2 updates available? Can I safely remove these apps now that final/newer versions are installed?

Hi. We're aware of teh issues in SDC (beta). Fences should be resolved.
The applications should prompt for re-install/uninstall/etc. as needed.
