Is it possible to install an older version of mediaportal with leaving the current one intact?
For testing purpose.

I have tried but i only get a new folder which is empty.

    You can not run 2 copies of mp at the same time, but you can backup the following directories (copy or rename them):
    C:\ProgramFiles\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal and TvServer and
    C:\ProgramData\Team mediaPortal\MediaPortal and TvServer

    You might have a risc in destroying your TvDazabase, so pleas backup that one.

    MP1 MP2 Can't install on Win11 DE
    I've done a few MP1 installs in the past and haven't had a problem, so I didn't expect one today. I just purchased a mini PC with Win11 installed. I downloaded and tried installing Mediaportal 1. I chose single click standard installation with no TV. It started working on things and I wasn't paying terribly close attention, but...

    To be fair the normal uninstall is usually more than sufficient. I regularly uninstall and reinstall MP 1 as part of the testing process and only very rarely have I needed to use the manual procedure posted by @CyberSimian to overcome the error you ran into. I also believe there is a procedure to repair the MySQL install in the event...

    MP1 MP2 No TV Service DE
    Looking at recent activity on the web site, it has been 4 weeks since any of the MP2 developers have been active. They may be taking a short (or an extended) break. For this reason I would suggest that you uninstall MP2 and re-install MP1. The 1.33 version is recommended (in either the 32-bit or 64-bit version). Also, it is pretty...
