I had to reinstall PD 12 program as with the latest update, it was screwing up when I tried to either produce/or create disc. Now wondering what updates are necessary.

1. Should I install all updates that are listed starting with 2109....or just the latest?

My program is version 12.0.2027.3.

I had downloaded and installed the update 2420 and all was working OK. Then realized there was another update 2726. Installed that one and the trouble began.

2. Another question, when installing a new update, will it uninstall and reinstall the program?

Hope if you help me, you will answer both questions.

I happen to be on a deadline with this video and am just hanging.

Thanks.

You only need to install the latest patch.

Patches are cumulative. The last one contains all previous fixes.

Patches do not uninstall the program. They do make changes to the program.

Once you install the patch, do you need to hold on to the downloaded file?

Why did you ask? Are you that low on HDD/SDD space? IF you can reach the site in the future when you want to, there is no need to keep it. .
