Old versions of Musescore.
Having downloaded Musescore 2.3.2 am I able to delete the older versions that are still stored on my computer (ie MS 2.0.2, 2.0.3, 2.1(1), 2.1, 2.21, 2.3.1)?
With thanks. CA

If you have a linux based machine, this may not be 100% accurate but otherwise, when you download and install a new version of MuseScore it replaces the old version automatically. If you are referring to the install package then you can delete those as soon as they are installed.

On Windows, having the installer file around for the current version is actually a good idea, otherwise you can get error messages when you go to update later. So I'd leave the installer for 2.3.2 on your system but delete the rest.

Many thanks. I should have said I have Windows 10. I will certainly keep 2.3.2, but I’m not sure what the ‘installer file’ is. I don’t know how you chaps and chapesses do this but I’m full of admiration for the delivery of a great program.

The installer file is the MSI file you actually downloaded. That is, presumably you downloaded this file using a web browser, then double-clicked it or otherwise "ran" it, and that is when dialogs came up allowing you to install MuseScore. That MSI file is what I am suggesting you keep around even though you've already done the installation.
