Thanks. Didn't see the separate bug report notice, now I know it's their. I installed NB 26 and was given the option to install it in a personal directory. I am not disappointed that this option is not there, but, when issues develop it becomes an issue to 'backup' to a previous release. art On 2/25/2026 8:57 AM, Neil C Smith wrote: > *neilcsmith-net* left a comment (apache/netbeans#9230) > <https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/9230#issuecomment-3960638749> > > All the existing community installers update in place across all OS > packages.
