Probably A Stupid Question - Can you have both Beta and Stable versions of DCS installed?

Probably A Stupid Question - Can you have both Beta and Stable versions of DCS installed at the same time? If so can they be on the same system and the same hard drive or on a second drive? I have been looking for this information but have not been able to locate it. Thanks...

Steps:

- Make a copy of your current install and put it somewhere on your PC (can be on the same drive if it's large enough).

- Use Skatezilla's updater (https://forum.dcs.world/topic/134493-the-dcs-updater-gui-utility/ ) utility and update your just copied copy into the version you want.

- Either create icons to the new install or use Skatezilla's updater to launch the version you want to use.

alternative steps, including only official stuff:

-get the beta installer from ED https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/

-install the beta

-during installation the installer will copy all stuff not needed to download from your vanilla installation
