Thank you for your reply George.
The following will make my lack of computer "savvy" obvious, but here is what I found in checking for a location of the songs in my "online" computer which now has version 3.004 installed on it. They appear to be in a folder titled "songs" with location and other info as follows:
25.7 GB 784 FILES, 1 FOLDER
C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICRO TECHNOLOGY UNLIMITED\MICROSTUDIO
To my mind, because it appears they are in a "Microstudio" file, I fear they may be deleted when I download 4.000 and it "uninstalls" 3.004, then installs 4.000. The "songs" folder must be the default location that Microstudio put them in when I uploaded from CDG as I did not, to my recollection, choose a file to store them in.
I guess all of the aforementioned just adds more questions. First, with this additional information, do you still feel that an "uninstall" will leave these files in the "songs file so I can use them in 4.000 ? Second, if the uninstall / reinstall does leave them alone, how do I get them into the 4.000 once installed ?
I've been using Microstudio since 2003, have upgraded several times over the years since, was even a Beta tester at one point, and love the Microstudio program. However, the reason I don't have an understanding of the "uninstall" / "reinstall" situation and have never had to be concerned about losing files or the file location of songs etc. is that I had 2 computer crashes in 2005 which necessitated a total reinstall twice. Everything was lost in both instances, so, no need to have a concern about losing song files as they were all gone and had to be reloaded anyway.
Sorry for the length of this posting. Any further help you can give would be appreciated. My best to Doug and all the hard working, fine folks at MTU.
