Deivit:
Thanks for your advice bennyd and jgreen

Alex B:
This is what I did:

1. Made a System Restore Point with XP's System Restore tool.

2. Opened Regedit and exported the following Windows registry branches to a safe place:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ JRiver
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ JRiver

- these are included in the number 1., but it is a lot quicker to restore a couple of registry keys if needed than make a complete system restore.

3. Made a library backup with MC11.1.

4. Installed MC12 in a separate folder.

5. Made a new library and pointed it to my old main library. (I suppose a library restore would have worked as well.)

It seems that if MC12 has changed a library MC11.1 cannot load it anymore.
