WinImages R7 may be installed in machines with previous WinImages installations. The directory structure is quite different from the WinImages R4 release or earlier, and care should be taken not to place the new WinImages R7 installation in the same locations as the old, or the old installation will be lost or damaged. The new installation will succeed, however.
In the following table, "base dir" means that the file is placed in the directory (folder) where WinImages R7 was installed. The default location is:
