Hi everybody,

I use two Logos accounts, one for working and one for demonstration of basic functions. This second account is for show to others what Logos can do if one does not invest any money.

I installed both accounts on my computer, but now I need the space on the HD. How can I uninstall / delete everything from the second account without uninstalling the whole Logos?

Thanks!

    I did not know this was possible. How do you do that? Sign in and sign out when you want to do a demo?

    A while back (time flies, no idea how long ago!) FL added the ability to switch accounts... which only has limited or no benefit to most users.

    You might be able to delete it from  the Accounts menu (top right of the Logos window) of your working account, where you can switch between Logos accounts.

    That won't work!

    See this wiki for the path to Logos (Logos4 on Mac). Read the Notes to see how to access hidden folders.

    • exit your working installation
    • use Finder or File Explorer to open the Logos4/Logos folder
    • Open the Data folder and you should see two random-named folders.
    • Delete the smaller of the two folders (your demo account won't have all the resources of your working account)
    • Repeat the above in the Documents folder

    Restart Logos!
