I backed up my MC26. I removed MC26. I bought MC32. I got the license for MC in an email. I downloaded MC 32. I double clicked on the downloaded file. I turned off all my anti-virus programs and extensions (ad blockers etc.). I got a pop up saying the file was not signed and clicked "run anyways". MC 32 never loads? When I try to get status and/or restart the installer it says "another instance of MC32 installer is already running." I can't find that "instance" to perform any operation on. It's been "running" for 48 hours. How do I correct this problem? Can I delete the installer and try again? How do I do that? I will need step by step help.

You did the right thing, but we can't fix the problem. Try updating Windows Defender definitions. Don't use any other antivirus.

I am upgrading from MC20 to MC32. Will MC20 be uninstalled during the upgrading process? Thank you!!

No. It won't.
The MC32 Installation should pick up your MC20 library and import it, along with settings. That's a big jump though. Much has changed in those 12 major versions.
I would advise, in MC20, do File > Library > Backup Library.
If, after installing MC32... (be patient, it now copies thumbnails, and installs the Edge browser), these operations can take time and make it seem as if the installation has failed when it has not, but then, if, once completed, things 'ain't right', you can restore your recent backup, including settings, and move on from there.
It's a big leap. A lot has changed. You can check the change logs on the wiki if anything is confusing. The block builds list allows for searching within the page for a specific term, which is useful :)

Thank you, Marko, for your detailed description.
I really enjoyed MC20 since the first time and I'm happy to enjoy the new MC32.
Regards.
