Photosuite 7 Platinum/creator 2010/creator Nxt2

[Solefie]

Hello

 

Hope someone can help

 

My computer broke down, and now a have a new with windows 8.1.

 

I wanted to install roxio creator 2010 but I've lost my back up disk.

 

Instead I tried to install Roxio PhotoSuite 7 Platinum (from 2006) - and guess what......it WORKED. It didn't work on Windows Vista or Windows 7 - but I'm very happy because I loved the templates for cards and calenders and fonts of which many didn't came with creator 2010.

 

But I still want the creator 2010 or upgrade to NXT2 - but when I read about how to upgrade, it says that it automatically uninstalls the program I'm upgrading from - and now I'm asking if anyone knows if I can have both programs (PhotoSuite and NXT2) installed at the same time?

 

And does anynone know if It is possible to install the Creator 2010 though I have missed my back up disk. I'm only interessed in the part with photos - does anyone know if the NXT2 is better or worse than Creator, when it comes to photo.

 

Many questions - but hope someone can help :-)

 

Best regards

Kirsten

What are you doing with Photos?

 

What do you Hope to do with them?

@ GrandpaBruce .......Thank you

 

@Jim_Hardin ..... just common image/Photo editing - birthdaycards - calenders and fun - but Creator 2010 has a lot of features that PhotoSuite doesn''t have

and PhotoSuite has a lot of templates that Creator2010 doesn't have- So I want to have both programs installed - but can I avoid that the installation of

Creator or NXT2 will uninstall PhotoSuite?
