can I have T7 and current WF co-exist?

I use my 32-bit T7 for a number of great plugins that stopped development.
some projects must remain as they are, some would go transition, then new ones would run WF.

would any settings-, temp or project files collide?
license activation coexists?

Don't think there are any issues--lots of folks here have both installed on the same computer.

I think I might be running T7 with W11.5 myself.

The big risk is in running two 64-bit versions and opening/saving the wrong project, at worst. But in your case, shouldn't be any issues.

I've had T7, Wavform 10, and WF11 all on the same system.

I had no activation issues with plugins.

I *think* there may be a bit of a collision as far as where T7/WF are indexed as far as settings, but nothing major that I can recall.

You get a popup if you try to load a project into WF (or vice versa) along the lines of, "this project was created in X. If you continue, you may not be able to use X again." Something like that. But overall, I didn't find any major problems.

Oh, be mindful of where/how you save projects. I vaguely recall everything went to the T7 folder when I upgraded to WF10.

Settings coexist...two separate files, right next to each other.

I have T6 to W11 on mine, including both 32- and 64-bit versions where available.
[W10-64, T5/6/7/W8/9/10/11/12/13, 32(to W8)&64 all, Spike],[W7-32, T5/6/7/W8, Gina16] everything underused.

thanks a lot.
do you have different project root folders for each version?
sure I need different plugin folder structures 32/64 wise..
(plugins manually assorted in subtrees by type)
