Can I delete any MC19 references after installing MC20
« on: January 28, 2015, 01:15:52 am »
Morning Guys, please confirm if we can delete any MC19 references, Cache Data, library backups etc after installing and configuring MC20.
Will there be any loss of information ie. metadata, album art etc by performing this act ?

Thank you

Your best bet is Tools > Options > File location
Check the paths for M19 references

All references under Tools, Options, File Locations refer to MC 20.

There is still an existing MC19 folder with library backups, cache etc but its contains more files than the MC20 folder.....

Please could you clear this up for me.

If nothing in 20 points to it, you can safely remove it.
However, one never knows for sure what is happening under the water.
You might simple rename the 19 folders or drag them to another location.
If 20 still function properly, delete them

When you're happy with MC20, just uninstall MC19.
