Joel,
 
When using the PyMOL launch icons, it is only possible to have one active 
version installed (registered) under Windows.  
 
However, you can (1) copy and rename the Program Files \ DeLano Scientific \ 
PyMOL folder from a correctly installed version, then (2) edit the launch.bat 
file inside the copied folder to point PYMOL_PATH at the copied location, and 
then (3) use that launch.bat to launch that copy even after removing or 
updating the main installed version.  
 
In such a situation, you can have one registered version and then any number of 
unregistered copies sitting in adjacent folders, each launchable with their own 
launch.bat script.
 
If you've got a mess at present, use the Control Panel to uninstall any 
registered copies, then delete (or rename) the Program Files \ DeLano 
Scientific \ PyMOL folder (if present) and then reinstall a fresh copy of the 
version you wish to run.
 
Cheers,
Warren

Hi again folks,

 

Having tried to install both versions on my PC, then delete versions I can now 
only start pymol using the pymol.exe and any other automatic links bring the 
error:

 

Error: Pymol failed to launch "Aw Shucks"

 

I can get around this but it would be nice to restore to the original status 
quo.

 

Thanks for any help 

 

J
