Can I run Movie Studio alongside Pro?

Pretty much as the title says... I'm interested in upgrading to Pro, but hesitant to do so if it means overwriting the Movie Studio installation, as my PC is pretty old and I don't want to end up in a situation where Pro is just too much for the PC to handle. I know a demo is available, but fear facing the same issue, and then dealing with a whole bunch of reinstalling/re-authorizing MS.

So... is it possible to have a Pro upgrade installed alongside Movie Studio?

Thanks!

Np problem at all, look on my laptop

But try on your hardware first the trial because the latest Pro needs other specs than the older Movie Studio versions

Thanks! That's helpful.

I was getting excited, but then noticed the current minimum spec for Pro is a 6th gen i5. Turns out my PC is only a 3rd gen i5. Wondering if it's worth installing Pro for the occasional time that it does something special, and sticking with MS for the rest of the time. I guess testing the demo is the only way to find out! ;-)
