This is a new idea just in case someone experiences problems with an update, I think that will depend on responses from users if they like it or not.
2. If the answer to #1 is yes will future upgrades (eg. 5.08) keep a version of 5.07 as a working copy as well as the prior version kept by the 5.07 upgrade. I'm asking if with each upgrade will I have another old copy of the software, eventually ending up with many copies of old software installations?
No, i don't see that happening it will just be the previous version you were using at that time.
3. Will prior versions kept on the computer be uninstallable through the remove programs application in Windows without affecting the most recent version? If not, how can prior versions be removed?
No you can't uninstal it, It is not a full install of Hoster, it is just an executable file about 2.5 MB in size so won't gobble up your hard drive space. If you don't want the HosterPrior version showing on your desktop just delete the shortcut icon for it.

You can always start the program from C:/Program files(x86)/Micro Technology Unlimited/Hoster folder. That's the path if it on windows 7.
You could actually just delete the HosterPrior.exe file from there but don't do that to the Hoster.exe file.
