I am under Windows XP SP3 and i finally have installed SM2.0.2 without

This is to inform everybody that he should
- First use add/remove program to Remove SM1.
- Then Install SM2 by running the donwloaded SeaMonkey Setup 2.0.2.exe.
I had installed SM2 without removing first SM1:
- I encountred a mixed between SM1 and SM2 in the "Start" - "All
Programs" - "Seamonkey"
- Then to eliminate the mix - i used add/remove program to Remove SM1.
- The mix dissappeared - so far so good - BUT also the link to start SM2
by using "Start" - "All Programs" - "Seamonkey"
To remove this problem:
- I used add/remove program to Remove SM1.
- I used add/remove program to Remove SM2.
- And finally i install SM2 by running the donwloaded SeaMonkey Setup
2.0.2.exe.
- Now the "Start" - "All Programs" - "Seamonkey" is ok and suit SM2
only and completely.
So i repeat:
- First use add/remove program to Remove SM1.
- Then Install SM2 by running the donwloaded SeaMonkey Setup 2.0.2.exe.
To avoid the problem i encountered.
I installed SeaMonkey 2.0 under Windows XP back in October and now have
SeaMonkey 2.0.2. I just now removed SeaMonkey 1.1.18 without any
problem. I did not have to reinstall SeaMonkey 2.0.2.
I initially installed SeaMonkey 2.0 in a different folder than SeaMonkey
1.1.18. My four profiles for SeaMonkey 2.0 were also under a different
folder than the profiles for SeaMonkey 1.1.18. For the startup, I
created separate folders for the two versions of SeaMonkey, both under a
single Mozilla folder, which also has the startup for Thunderbird.
Obviously, if I wanted to install and use two different versions, I had
to avoid overlapping the two versions.
Nice to know that you don't get any problem ... but could you start
SeaMonkey by using this way: "Start" - "All Programs" - "Seamonkey" ... ?
Yes. Because I set my Start Menu Properties in Windows XP to Classic
Start menu and because I group SeaMonkey and Thunderbird together under
Mozilla, the sequence is [Start> Programs> Mozilla> SeaMonkey2>
SeaMonkey]. Before I removed SeaMonkey 1.1.18, I also had [Start>
Programs> Mozilla> SeaMonkey1> SeaMonkey]. This was part of how I
avoided overlapping the two versions.
Ok, now i understand.
I had installed SM1 all by default, then installed SM2 by default.
Finally i removed SM1 and the problem was that the start-browser and the
start-mail dissappeared from "Start" - "All Programs" - "Seamonkey"
because SM1 and SM2 have different repositories, different program
locations but have the *same* location for the start links under "Start"
- "All Programs" - "Seamonkey".
