Hi Everybody,
upgrading to the latest versions of Cubase, SpectraLayers, Dorico, Halion, Absolute Collection, etc. I am looking for a convenient way to delete the older versions from my computer (Win 11 Pro). How should I do this without corrupting the current versions and dependencies?
Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences and advice.
Best, Willfried.
Uninstall as normal in Windows Apps & Features. Steinberg keeps the versions completely separate from each other so that there is no risk of damaging other applications during uninstallation.
True, but the content Libraries are shared between versions. So the C13 Library is a superset of the C12 Library containing everything in it plus some additional content that came with C13. And going back earlier it’s the same.
Uninstalling Cubase will not remove any content, so you won’t hurt anything. However since the content uses a huge amount of disk-space compared to the programs folks are often surprised by how little disk-space they reclaim after uninstalling Cubase.

Thanks for your help. I understand, it is like removing some MB while the VST libraries consume some GB.
Is it possible to move he library folder to another harddisk? If yes, how to do that such that Cubase & Co will find the VST-Libs?
