jv, just FYI,
As follows, it is possible to share directories across products (and I do):
* -- registry backups are upward compatible, and can be copied into the shared PT Backups folder
2. PT2004 (v 1.4.1.248)
* -- registry backups are
3. PT2005 (1.5.1.307)
* -- Snapshots can not be used since Registry Monitor is not upward compatible
* -- Registry Cleaner
* -- this can easily be controlled with saved Preferences
* -- other settings (for tools I use) appear to be upward compatible through 1.7 versions
* -- actually making changes with tools other than Registry Cleaner requires
4. PT2006 (1.5.2.350)
* -- Registry Cleaner
* -- this can easily be controlled with saved Preferences
* -- other settings (for tools I use) appear to be upward compatible through 1.7 versions
* -- actually making changes with tools other than Registry Cleaner requires
5. PT2007 (v 1.7.0.411)
* -- Registry Cleaner
* -- this can easily be controlled with saved Preferences
* -- other settings (for tools I use) appear to be downward compatible through PT2005
6. RegSupreme Pro (v 1.7.0.409)
* -- of course RegSupreme Pro does not use Snapshots, and Tasks
* -- otherwise, for its subset of tools, it appears to be 100% compatible with PT2007 (v 1.7.0.411)
7. Disclaimers:
* -- some .dat files in the shared Settings folder seem to contain unnecessary settings
* -- no doubt much of that is due to my sharing the Settings folder through releases
* -- it seems to do no harm (no significant effect on the way the tools operate across versions, except as noted above)
* -- using prior versions undoes some cosmetic/convenience improvements (e.g., remembering column widths)
* -- these are easily recovered just by using the tools, and I only go back when there's a reason (see 8 ) …
8. Why do all this in the first place?
* -- to enable comparisons in results for new releases
* -- to occasionally use features no longer present in current releases
