Hi, I have Unity 5.4 installed on Mac. Do I have to uninstall it to install the new version 5.5? Couldn’t find any info on how to upgrade from different versions. Because when I verify for updates from inside Unity’s menu, it will will say that I have the latest version installed “5.4.2”, which is not true, because there is a new version which is 5.5.
Thanks!
No, you don’t have to uninstall. If you leave the old app alone, the installer will overwrite it with the new one. I sometimes need to keep a few old versions around for a while, so I simply rename them (e.g. rename the Unity app to “Unity 5.4”) before running the installer. Then you’ll have both the old and the new.
In Windows you can tell the installer where to put it. I have everything from 4.6 on concurrently I stalled with no issues.
Or you can just use the same folder and it will overwrite everything for you.
Note there is no ‘upgrade’ option. The installer will redownload all of Unity and reinstall it.
