p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Nik help with new Google Package install


I have installed HDR Efex Pro 2 into CS6, and have been told that the new Google Nik package does not uninstall the old version. So what would be the best way to uninstall my old HDR Efex, and install the new Google Nik package ?

The installer will overwrite the current versions so no need to uninstall. If however you had HDR Efex 1 it would leave it on your system.

On my Mac, the installer did not remove the old versions. In fact, it created a new folder called "Nik collection" for the files and left unaltered the original folder "Nik software."

Older versions stay current versions get written over of all the plug-ins not just HDR Efex1. On both my PC and Mac the current versions did not duplicate and on PC HDR Efex1 stayed.

+Jan Kabili The Nik Collection will work just fine with previous products like Color Efex Pro 3, Silver Efex Pro 1, HDR Efex Pro 1, etc. If you still find value in those older products, please keep them installed. The Nik Collection will automatically upgrade only the current products, and will leave those older products installed. If you don't want them, visit the support site for uninstall instructions: support.google.com/nikcollection

+Mark F The Nik Collection contains all of the Nik plug-ins. The installer will replace the old Nik Software versions of Color Efex Pro 4, HDR Efex Pro 2, Silver Efex Pro 2, Viveza 2, Sharpener Pro 3, and Dfine 2. It will leave older products alone, like Color Efex Pro 3, Silver Efex Pro 1, HDR Efex Pro 1, etc. You really don't want two copies of the same product on your system
