I can delete Ct 15 engine, install Ct 14 engine and it works. As soon as I install Ct 15 engine, the Ct 14 engine will indicate that it is Ct 15 engine and work with no book or CP freezes and nothing works. I have tried deleting Ct 14, installing Ct15 , then install Ct 14, that does not work. viceversa does not work. I have tried installing Ct 14 as a native engine, that does not work. I have given up and will wait for further instructions from you. To be honest, Ct 15 should have installed right over Ct 14 and leave it as it is (working) or there should been some instructions that Ct 14, would no longer work or instructions on how to install/re-install both should have been included. I wasted hours on this last night and now to find out there are some installation scenarios where I lose the Ct 14 engine does not make me a happy camper. This whole thing came about because Lokasoft folder was growing to aboy 200MB and it seemed unneccesary. So I was trying to do a clean install on the wholething with both Ct 14 and Ct 15. Without any EGTB, it maybe should only be 25-30MB at the most IMO. If I get Ct 14 working with Ct 15, I will be a happy camper again. Thanks! Mike
