From Edius workgroup 8 to Edius 9 Plus :)

[tony]

Hi guys, I do know this was covered many times before but im afraid to mess up.

I want to upgrade Edius 8.5 to edius workgroup 9 or 9 Plus but frightened to start uninstalling until i get the proper order of uninstall and install.

Thanks in advance. :)

have you purchased 9 Plus? today is the last day

[tony]

Yes Anton, I have, a week or better ago. I've the serial for it.

ok, go to www.edius.net/plus now and enter the serial, this will give you the X serial which can be used to use EDIUS 9 WG and EDIUS X WG on the same PC

so first you install 9 WG and activate it with the X serial and then install X WG and you do not need to enter any serial

you can also skip the ID login during installation

Thank you Anton, so uninstall all Edius first? I wont be able to install Edius X Workgroup on my PC yet, My PC is too old. Going to update PC soon.

Thank you.

Thank you.

it does not matter, still use the X serial for 9WG

then when you have a new PC, deactivate the 9WG on the old PC and activate it (9WG and/or X WG) on the new one

:) Thank you so much.

OK , Where do I download Edius workgroup 9 Plus from ?

Is it here?

https://www.edius.net/updates.html

Is this the version I need to install

EDIUS Software v9.52.6384 Full Installer Released: 2020-07-30



I'm uninstalling Edius workgroup 8 before I install Edius 9 and im being ask, do I want to deactivate the Edius License?

yes or No ?

Thanks

I would not uninstall 8 at this stage because you may want to copy some plugins from 8 to 9 if needed, 8 and 9 can coexist on the same PC with no issues

If it is an upgrade you will also need the EDIUS 8 serial to load EDIUS 9.

Thanks, but when I went to install 9 it said there is an old version and I need to uninstall it first. Is that the correct version I have to install, btw (see above) Thanks.

[antonsvideo]

no, you will not be asked to uninstall 8

you must have an older version or some of its components still installed

can you make a screenshot of all programs installed, you may need several

Double post, Yes, its telling me to uninstall older version first.

OK I'll screenshot.
