Using two program versions in parallel


Answer

Question: I just did the ChessBase17 setup and installed the program. This went well. Can I uninstall Chessbase16? Also, I just downloaded the update version of Mega Database 2023. I have 2 setup files: "SetupMega2023" and "SetupMega2023CB16Searchbooster".

If I don't want to convert the Mega Database to the new 2CBH format, do I need to install the Mega Database 2023 with "SetupMega2023CB16Searchbooster"?

If I convert the Mega Database to the new 2CBH format, do I need to install the Mega Database 2023 with "SetupMega2023"?


Answer: No, you do not need to uninstall CB16. You can run both programs.

You should use both installation programs. The second program installs the search booster for the CBH format.

If you convert Mega Database 2023 to the new 2CBH format and now use CB17 exclusively, you will not need the search booster.

If you do not want to convert, you must use both. "SetupMega2023CB16Searchbooster" installs only the SearchBooster, nothing else.

"SetupMega2023" installs the database.
