Title: upgrade installation to 25
Post by: whatwhat on July 21, 2019, 06:57:47 am

I purchased an upgrade license to upgrade from 21 to 25.
In this case, how to install 25 and register with a new license coder?
Should I keep 21 and overwrite 25 and input a new license code?
Is the clean installation (uninstalling 21 and then installing 25) available?

Just install MC25.  It will find your old library and use it.  Uninstall MC21 when you're happy with MC25.

Restore your MC25 license.

Thanks, JimH  :) I successfully installed and registered 25 keeping 21, and found that I can reinstall 25 without 21 from the next installation. However, after I format and cleanly reinstall the OS, should I firstly install the old 21 and then install 25?

No.  Not necessary.

make a backup of MC25 and save it to use after you reinstall your OS
