  • 1.  Can the Same Version of Sage 100 Standard and Premium be Installed on the Same Computer?

    Posted 08-27-2022 12:00
    I need to install Sage 100 Premium either 2021 or 2022 on a computer that already has version 2021 and 2022 standard.  Uninstalling v2022 is not an option.  It has several enhancements including CBizCharge that I don't want to mess with.  I uninstalled 2021 Standard and when I try and run the installation for 2021 Premium I get the "A newer version of this application is already installed on this computer" message.  I am reasonably certain there is a workaround for this.  Does anyone know how I can get 2021 premium installed without uninstalling 2022 Standard?

    You can copy the existing sage 100 to a new folder. Then uninstall the sage 100 standard then you can install the premium. Note that you will not be able to install any product updates to the old ( copied ) version anymore. Also you will need to update the location in the existing sage 100 client to point to the new location.

    What versions are you referring to uninstalling?  Prior to posting here I copied 2021 std to a backup folder and uninstalled it.  Then tried to install 2021 premium.  The installer doesn't like that I have 2022 std installed and displays the message I have in the original post stopping the install.

    Thank you @Jim Woodhead for the advice and for working overtime on a weekend!  I was super cautious about uninstalling v2022 Standard because I just got Century Business Solutions credit card processing up and configured and it took some tweaking to get it working the way I needed it to.  For documentation purposes, here is what worked:  Copied Sage 100 v2022 Standard. Sage100v71 folder to Sage100v71Backup folder.  Uninstalled v2022 Standard. Re-named the Sage 100 v2022 Standard shortcut to Sage 100 v2022 Standard.  Installed v2022 Premium, PU1 and CM7100T.  re-named the Sage 100 v2022 Premium shortcut to Sage 100 v2022 Premium. Copied the Sage100v71Backup sub-folders folder on top of the Sage100v71 sub-folders (the original location).  Interesting to note that when Sage 100 v2022 Standard was uninstalled, the MAS_XXX data folders are not removed, only HOME and some of the system folders.
