ShockWave 11 Installation leaves Version 10

[Mottimus]

In our environment, we need everything to be installed silently (automated)...
Am I missing some command line switches or something to make the latest version
remove the previous ones? Running the installation manually does not provide
any options to remove previous versions.

Am I missing something, or is this a design flaw somewhere in the installation
of ShockWave version 11? Is it standard to leave the remnants of the previous
version of ShockWave player when you install the latest version?? :confused;

Using the download from Adobe: sw_lic_full_installer.msi
The previous version was of 10 (also): sw_lic_full_installer.msi

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!

Both versions (10 and 11) can - and in some cases have to - co-exist

There is an uninstaller in the support section that will uninstall previous
versions of Shockwave....but I warn you! I go on a site to play games called
Slingo. After I uninstalled my previous version of Shockwave (which by the way
is recommended by Adobe before installing Shockwave 11), I can no longer play
games on this site! It seems I was told by the help desk at Slingo that Adobe
announced that Shockwave player 11 does not support Windows 98, ME, 2000 and
XP. Yet...as of yet I have not found any download places for any previous
versions of Shockwave Player....just uninstall areas of previous players. Now
how do you like them apples, pardon the pun. So it seems that Adobe no longer
cares about previous OS when creating their new programs. I mean after all,
Windows Vista has not even been out for a year yet! How can you not support
Windows XP when there are still so many users of that OS. Microsoft still
supports Windows XP (and they are the created of this OS) so why can't Adobe!

I know that Slingo said they are taking out shockwave for their games now.
Hmmmm, wonder how Adobe feels about that???? As of yet, I still can not play
any of the games until their site has eliminated shockwave from their
games...since the new Shockwave Player will not allow the games to
load!:brokenheart;

I am so sick of developers creating new programs that will not work with
previous OS (operating systems). At least they could have them work with at
least one back version!
