Hi,

just go lightroom 4, have been using 3 for a while.

I was wondering, what directories / files can be deleted or moved that belong to lightroom 3, that would not be needed for lightroom 4 ?

Or should I just uninstall lightroom 3, and then install 4 ?

thanks!

INSTALL 4 FIRST...

4 will find your catalogs and convert them for its use.

Only then can you safely uninstall 3.x

I seem to remember the old version 3 catalogue gets left behind in the same location as the new v4 one is created, even after uninstalling v3, this can also be deleted if you wish, but it's not a bad idea to keep this for a bit, just in case...
