Default How do I go about installing my PT 10 upgrade from PT 9?

We got PT 9 back in 2012 and it came with a free upgrade for PT 10. We were doing a lot of recording back then and then we had a some major computer issues. Long story short.. here it is good old 2017 and we are finally at a place where we can do the upgrade. We have no idea how to do this. How do we go about doing the upgrade??? (Yes we downloaded the upgrade from Avid and it has been sitting waiting to be installed on the computer. Just not sure of the steps and if we have to delete PT9 first).

Any advice/ experience/ expertise is appreciated!!

First things first. Will your computer/operating system run PT10, i.e. is it compatible?

If it is. then yes, clean uninstall PT 9, reboot, then install PT 10.

Before you uninstall/reinstall, please either clone or image your drive so, if something goes wrong/doesn't work, you can get back to a working system with no trouble.

On Mac look up SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner, on PC Macrium Reflect is my choice - they even have a free version.
