This is a long-standing problem that needs to be fixed. WSJT-X should use a default path that includes the version#.   That will provide two things #1 Very easy for user to start whichever version they want #2 Avoid duplicate program entries This patch makes the default install directory match

Dave, Michael is correct -- this issue should be fixed. But, I have an easier way for you to deal with this in the future... I am not interested in installing multiple versions on my computer. (I know Michael has to because he has to test Hamlib.) On my computer, I install WSJT-X in this fold

Hello Dave, one way to approach this (what I do) is use the '7ZIP' utility to extract the contents of the package (right click on EXE file / extract to / folder-name. &Zip recognises the packaged EXE as a type of archive file and will allow you to extract the contents without running the EXE inst

Roger, When you switch modes as you described, WSJT-X will read the radio's current frequency, but will not automatically switch it for you. I see this all the time when I switch between FT4 and FT8. It is normal behavior and you will have to select the frequency you want from the combo box.
