FSUIPC5 to FSUIPC6

[Pitter 23]

I want to switch from FSUIPC 5.1 to 6 for p3dv4.5. Question: does 5.1 have to be uninstalled first, or can Vers6 simply be installed alongside it?

When you install FSUIPC6, it should detect your FSUIPC5 installation and uninstall this before installing FSUIPC6 in the same location. Or you can manually uninstall FSUIPC5 first if you prefer, and then select the same folder when you install FSUIPC6 - although you can of course change the installation location, but then you would need to manually copy/move any files you still need from the old location to the new one.

Remember to rename your FSUIPC5.ini file to FSUIPC6.ini to preserve your settings.
