George: Yes, completely uninstall the trial version first and use the CLCleaner software mentioned in one of the "sticky" threads on the first page of this forum.

It is best to download your new version (will take awhile). Problems have been reported with the boxed set.

Download the two files (program & content). Install the program, then the content, then activate, and then apply the 2702 patch, if required.

Let us know if you have any problems, ... or you don't! Good luck. Welcome to the world of PD9.

Have a great day.

Thanks.
I checked the sticky regarding the CLCleaner program. My question is after reading the below, do I uninstall or do as instructed below and fool the PC?

1. CLCleaner-PDR7.0-9.zip
This is designed to "fool" your PC and allow an overwrite of PD without needing to uninstall. Suitable for versions PD7/8/9.

Thanks

Uninstall PD9 Trial.

The use of CLCleaner is primarily aimed to resolve a problem.

You shouldn't have any issues with uninstalling PD9 trial. Phil has directed you correctly to the thread for CLCleaner - best to know about it..... just in case.
