robbchadwick Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I want to avoid having two versions (4 & 5) of Alfred on my iMac. What is the best way to install Alfred 5, preserve preferences — and have Alfred 4 uninstalled? I assume it is better to upgrade to the new PowerPack after v5 is installed. Thanks. Link to comment
vitor Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Welcome @robbchadwick, Check the Getting Started with Alfred 5 blog post for proper steps. In essence, once you have your (upgraded) license run Alfred 5 and the Migration Assistant will guide you. To delete Alfred 4, drag the app to the Bin. robbchadwick 1 Link to comment
Vero Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 @robbchadwick In addition to what @vitor has said, just a quick note: We advise against using app cleaners to remove old Alfred versions, as these can be over-zealous and delete essential files for the current version of Alfred. As Vítor suggested, just drag Alfred 4 to Trash when you're done. robbchadwick 1 Link to comment
robbchadwick Posted July 14, 2022 Author Share Posted July 14, 2022 Thank you. I'm looking forward to the updated Alfred. Link to comment
