How can I install a newer release of the program without deleting my tune files, or the extended sound database I installed some time ago?

If you are using an installer, downloaded from our Website, to update your version, only the application and its internal data files will be changed. All other files will be preserved.
If you are performing a complete install of the new version, just install it over the old version, in the same folder, without uninstalling beforehand.

After an update, I get the "Language kit not found" message, and the software does not run. Why?
 
You forgot to include the language files in the archive. Download it again, after having selected "Include language files" and "English" in the pop-up menu.

I already own another application that uses the ".MUS" file extension. How to avoid an extension conflict?

When installing the program, select a custom install, and in the next panel, edit the file extensions. Deselect ".MUS" and let ".MYR" selected.
Once installed, run the program, then select "Configuration>Global settings".
In the "Save" tab, select "by default, propose the .myr extension instead of .mus".
Doing so, the program will use the ".MYR" extension only.

How to uninstall the application?

Select "Uninstall" in the group that has been created for the application. If you do not intend to use any of our applications anymore, you can also remove the SToccata font file from the system font folder.

How to uninstall the GOLD sound database?

In the “Configuration>Sound base“ menu, select the GOLD sound database, then in the same menu, select "Uninstall current database". GOLD sound database files will be deleted from your Hard Disk.
