How to upgrade my WD5

[ruffino]

O.K. guys, I got my email confirming my free WD6 upgrade with my new activation code.

Now what do I do?
Do I download WD6? what will it do to my WD5? The upgrade is only available for purchase of $29

I dont want to mess up my WD5.

Thanks for the help!

Yes download WD6 they are different programs.

Typically, you can run all Xara programs side by side without them affecting each other. I had 3D6, WD5, XX5, and XX5Pro all running on the same PC with no ill effect that I could perceive.

The programs will install under seperate subdirectories, usually under the main Xara folder unless you change it on install.

Hope that helps.

All of Xara's programs work (play) well with each other.

Well with the exception of Webster, it works well with all but the other vector applications.

How long after submitting your request did it take for them to get back to you?

Hi JD,

When I purchased the upgrade from WD5 to WD6, the email with the activation code was received almost immediately.

Thanks, but I'm talking about getting the free upgrade code since I just purchased WD5 2 weeks ago.

I actually requested late on a friday and I heard back on the following Tuesday. Love WD6!
