Imatch 2020 - Install 30 Day test version

[nacho02]

Hi,

I'm currently running IM 2019 and would (exceptionally, since from IM3 I've just upgraded without attempting to run 2 IM versions in parallel) like to install the 30 day trial while still using my normal IM 2019. I have not found anything about this dual use.

Can I do this? Of course with a test DB in IM2020.

Thanks!
Ignacio

You can install it on a second PC or use a virtual machine with Windows installed.

IMatch uses many runtime components and 3rd party libraries which differ greatly between IMatch 2019 and 2020. And these can be installed only once per PC.
Also, the settings database will be upgraded when IMatch 2020 opens it. And then it is no longer compatible with older IMatch versions. I only support downward compatibility, not upward compatibility.

Just help the IMatch project and purchase an upgrade. Upgrades is what pays for the bills.

I can't imagine you'd regret doing this.

Understood. Thanks.

As I've mentioned before. I've been using IM for many many years and I have bought all upgrades. There is no reason to think differrently this time.

My question just related to testing the features.

Thanks for replying (both of you)-.

Then a second PC or running Windows in a VirtualBox or Virtual PC (both free for private use) will allow you to test IMatch 2020 before purchase.
