Here's the link for how to do the deed on a Mac There are instructions somewheres on the Avid site on manually uninstalling PT for both Mac and Windows. On a Mac you just delete the program file, empty the trash, and reinstall the older version. And it's possible to go backwards to an earlier version of PT.

People install over old versions of PT all the time without issue.

You install pro tools first on your computer and for some reason needed to grab files from a back up (ex.Time Machine) you will need to erase the drive and re install the OS according to apple when I asked plain to Apple if you don't like it Try running a build with signed components first to get it installed properly. Hate to bring this up again but you can't un install pro tools first, there is not un installer and if you had it on your computer and try to install over it you will get errors like this Īn error occurred installing Shoe Tool. And install stuff you want there, test it out and just throw that disk image away if stuff does not work. The way to really do this is clone your boot drive to a test drive, or have a test drive that is a clean macOS install. You'll never be sure you got absolutely every last thing. You don't need to do that, it's just a waste of time, when you run a Pro Tools installer it does that for you before it lays in the new (or old) version.īut manually trying to do stuff to get back to a previous working state is really the wrong way to do this.

Or if you installed a HD driver as part of an update do you want to roll that back with Pro Tools or not? There is no simple "right" answer. do you want to leave them updated or roll back to a previous version? or did you install Pro Tools and it did not update the plugins and you want to leave stuff alone?). if you installed Pro Tools and it updated the default plugins.

and just remembering all the different stuff that was installed and getting back to exactly what was installed before could be hard. But maybe one issue is there are multiple different things that folks might install, Pro Tools itself, plugins, drivers, etc. The installers do run a basic preinstall script that deletes a few basic things that hopefully is fine in most cases going forwards or backwards. They do have stand alone uninstallers for Avid Link and Cloud Collaboration (which always get uninstalled by me), and some other stuff. There is no hard and fast guide I am aware of for trying to manually undo installs, and I am not sure Avid ever committed stuff will work forwards or backwards across arbitrary versions and they don't provide an uninstaller for core Pro Tools on the Mac.
