The main difference is that I don't have all my profiles activated in normal use, only my main profile plus one project profile. Different project profiles can contain different versions of the same software, so activating them together is not a good idea. What got me started with this strategy was the need to use Python 2 and Python 3 in different projects. But then it turned out to be useful for other software as well. > Anyways, I'm all for discussing multiple strategies, the more the better! Sounds like a good plan! Cheers, Konrad
