Can I uninstall Lightroom 4 to free up space? [was: Photoshop/Lightroom]
I'm trying to free up space in my computer. I am currently using lightroom 5.7 but kept lightroom 4.6 on my computer. Can I uninstall lightroom 4.6 for free space. All the information recorded when I upgraded?
You can certainly uninstall older versions of Lightroom, but it won't release a huge amount of space, most likely your photos take much more space than the Lightroom program resumes. If you want to move the photos to another hard drive, let us know, we can provide instructions.
All the information recorded when I upgraded?
If you chose to update previous versions of Lightroom Catalog, it is then distributed to 5.7 LR. If you don't install the catalog Lightroom 5.7, so some of the information is still in the previous catalog file, and you need to upgrade to LR 5.7

How many times can you install Lightroom 5? My problem is that I saved my programs on C. I have more space, I want to record my programs now on E. I can now uninstall Lightroom and reinstall from C to E? Can I use the same license as the first installation code?
Use the same serial number. There is no problem to do that.

How can I get the amount of disk space by using windows 7 Please share example using GetDiskSpace I already studied http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9958B8E473C4EF1786256BBC0053B64F
Reading your question a little more in detail, I doubt if you are using the Win32 GetDiskFreeSpace API function (including my previous post is the solution) of the function GetDiskSpace from the Toolbox of the programmer.
With respect to the other, it works even with capacity greater than 2 GB disks, but you must use the appropriate formatting code to display the returned value. I updated my example to display the total of free space in the debug output window and added a comparison with the value of 3 GB using UInt64TypeCompareUInt box to tools programming interface.

I have installed the latest updates for lightroom 6 where is my question: ' can I uninstall Lightroom 6 followed by reinstall lightroom 6 to retrieve collections and put the pictures in the correct folders as they are in Lightroom 4?

How to uninstall avg 8.5 free edition
I can't uninstall avg.8.5 free edition and download and install avg int. 2011 seconds. I get 2 errors on part of uninstall. but I want deleted.
Hi Ms. Stone,
Try the removal tool appropriate to your version of Vista the following: http://www.avg.com/us-en/download-tools.
If that doesn't work, download and install Revo Uninstaller: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html and run in Advanced Mode to see if it works better to uninstall the program.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

How can I remove Lightroom 4 test to install Lightroom 5 EDU edition?
Hello!
I currently have an expired trial of Lightroom 4 on my laptop. I just purchased Lightroom 5 students and teachers. How can I leave the trial of Lightroom 4 but still keep the project to import into Lightroom 5? And I just do a normal installation of Lightroom 5 after that?
Thank you!
You can either uninstall Lightroom 4 before or after installing Lightroom 5. Uninstall does not remove the 4 Lightroom Catalog. The catalog is a user file and will remain. When you decide to uninstall Lightroom 4 you will use the procedure standard for what ever operating system you are using. You install 5 Lightroom as install you any other program; by running the installation program. Note that since you have a student version that you must follow the instructions on the card in the box in order to get the serial number to enable Lightroom on your computer.

After my laptop updated my applications, I now Photoshop CC (32 bit), Photoshop CC (64-bit) and Photoshop CC (2014) display installed on my computer. I also shows CC first and first CC (2014). Can I uninstall these they take up valuable space on my primary SSD? Help, please. It sounds ridiculous.
I just uninstalled Photoshop CC, CC Indesign and Illustrator CC and did not experience any hitch. EDIT: If you have plugins refer to John T Smith post below. I don't.
Now time for the mug shot:
-C' is a year + since switching to the CC; What does in the passage your brand identity at a "SaaS" society if you are not going to do rolling releases? You don't just want to pack and ship the physical boxes more? It is amazing to me. Tell your developers/architects to install some case of Linux (preferably Arch) and see how they handle upgrades of the package. If you guys weren't so phobic of Linux you might have picked up on how do it with elegance the package/app updates.
-Who, in Marketing thought "well *, if we have a fragmented, CC ecosystem might as well just stick at the end year. If this is going to be your naming convention you should push an update to rename the former CC (2013).
S ' Please, refresh your creative cloud app immediately. As @unconsenting posted before, HD space is luxury and cannot be wasted. Why not have a prompt asking if the user wants to uninstall any previous version? Before you find the uninstall file, I threw a look through the CC app for a Uninstall button does not exist. Ridiculous that I had to open the Applications folder (or sorting through the many Adobe uninstall applications, which displays to light) and 3 run uninstall applications, each uninstall a 5 min, after spending 15 minutes the new update running

Seek to eliminate the system restore points using cCleaner.
A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.
cCleaner also comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

How do I uninstall Lightroom 6 on my MAC so I can reinstall and start over?
I installed Lightroom 6.
I've migrated my iPhoto on Lightroom library.
But somehow I have duplicates of all my photos in Lightroom 6.
And I can't seem to raise other images of other folders in my computer to download them in Lightroom.
I want to just uninstall Lightroom completely and reinstall from scratch.
It is too inconsistent to the top of the way it is and I want to just start over.
I have an iMac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 running
Can you tell me how to uninstall it?
I'll look at the online help to get it reinstalled.
Thank you
Uninstall / reinstall won't change anything.
All the work you do in LR is registered in the catalogue (which is not affected by the uninstall), so you must create a new catalog if you want to start. (File > new)
To get photos from folders on your computer in LR, you must import the - LR is not like a file browser that you can point to a folder and see the contents.
Regarding duplicates in iPhoto. I'm not a Mac user, so I can't help you with that.
