Windows 10 64
PWP v7 installed
PWP v8 (5/19/19) installed
Windows 10 start menu = 'Picture Window' folder + PWP v7 link icons for exe, help and readme files.
D/L and Run PWP v8 (6/3/19) msi installer
message = "Another version of this product is already installed. . . . Use Add/Remove programs on the Control Panel."
Control panel | Apps Uninstall PWP v8.
Run PWP v8 (6/3/19) msi installer
No 'another version' message.
Windows 10 start menu = PW folder + PWP v7 link icons. NO PWP v8 link icons in this folder!

D/L and Run PWP v8 (6/5/19) msi installer
msg = "Windows Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk."
select [Run anyway]
message = "Another version of this product is already installed. . . . Use Add/Remove programs on the Control Panel."
select [OK] then Control panel | Apps and uninstall PWP v8 (6/3).
Run PWP v8 (6/5) msi installer
no Windows Defender message; no "another version' message.
Windows 10 start menu = PW folder + PWP v7 link icons. NO PWP v8 link icons in this folder!
a) the installer should uninstall the installed version
b) installer should put the links to the version 8 exe and help file into the 'Picture Window' folder. And create the folder if it is not there.
thank you!
