If you ave a lot of space on your system drive, why?

Many of us have multiple versions on our computers because we like to answer question about functionality of various versions. .

You can uninstall previous versions only if you want to.

Cyberlink products can run independently by each other, without software conflicts. So, you can have Power Director 14 and 15 installed on same computer without problems.

My D14 got automatically uninstalled by the PD15 installer. All stuff created like projects, titles and so one was imporded back to PD15.

I just upgraded from 14 to 15 and as of now I can give you 3 reason to keep 14 around.

1- I discovered that Magic Music is no longer present if you use it.

2 - 15 does not seem to export back .PDS files back to version 14 if you share projects with other.

3 - 15 No longer exports .MOV format i.e. QuickTime (but, there is good reason for this)
