How to uninstall only 32-bit CS5 without also uninstalling the 64-bit version?

Jun 19, 2012 8:11 PM

I have installed both the 32-bit and 64-bit version of CS5 in my Win7 system. Did that because some plugins does not run on 64-bit.

Now I wanted to trial CS6 and so do not wish to have too many versions on my pc.

 

I want to uninstall ONLY the 32-bit CS5. When I go to either my Uninstaller software or the "Program & Features" of Control Panel, I could only see one icon/program for PS- not 2 (one for 32-bit & 64-bit respectively).

 

How do I uninstall only the 32-bit without affecting the 64-bit version?

 

Thanks.

    Probably have to uninstall entire CS5 and then only install 64 bit version.  What will you do with plugins?

     

    Perhaps a better solution is to just install CS6 64 bit.

     

    Some users have problems when they uninstall a previous version.  So best to leave CS5 on if you decide to keep CS6.

    As Curt said, uninstall, then do a selective reinstall.

    That's what I fear. But the interesting thing is that I could & did install only 64-bit first and only after many months decided to install 32-bit.

    So from your answers, it seem I could selectively (ie 32 & 64 bit) install in whatever sequence but not uninstall.
