Freeing up disk space from old versions of A-10C, Ka-50...

[astrospud]

I originally had A-10C and Ka-50 (both 1.1.1.1) installed on my C:/ drive as it is an SSD and I wanted optimal game performance.

With other s/w filling it up quickly, I have decided to put my new installs on a 2TB secondary, eSATA. This now includes DCS:W.

My question is, with DCS:W installed and all purchased modules installed thereafter, is it safe to run the uninstallers for the original stand alone modules? I assume they don't share any resources with the newer installs? ie DCS:W on D: drive doesn't need anything in the install folder on C: drive from 1.1.1.1?

just unstall all the old ones and fill it up with DCS World then pack the modules lol

Not sure, i think Wags has mentioned the safe install procedure to be to uninstall DCS 1.1.1.1 first and then install DCS World 1.2.0 :)

Yes he said that but there is no harm in running both 1.1.1. and 1.20 next to each other since they are standalone all. So safe to say that you can uninstall 1.1.1.1 too. Wags proably meant old version from DCS World to avoid strange install errors some ppl had

All good. I have since uninstalled the legacy s/w and DCS:W and modules still work.

Thanks!
