 Beim Wechsel auf Titan Version 15.1 schließlich wurde Titan Mobile mit in Titan Go integriert. Damit wurde eine weitere Änderung in TitanSwitch erforderlich. Diese sind in Titan Switch Version 2.1 integriert. [[https://www.avosupport.de/downloads/TitanSwitch/TitanSwitch%202.1%20Installer.exe|TitanSwitch 2.1 wurde am 20. Januar 2022 freigegeben]].

 Dazu können direkt bei der Installation von TitanSwitch 2.0/2.1 die nicht kompatiblen Versionen aus dem Repository entfernt werden; dies lässt sich aber auch manuell erledigen. Außerdem wird optional die Registry von Einträgen gesäubert, die beim Switchen von Titan v14 übrigblieben - das ist sehr zu empfehlen, um danach Titan wieder neu zu installieren.

   * die letzte Dialogbox des Installers schlägt nun die für die meisten Anwender besser geeignete Option 'No' vor (bei 'Yes' würde die Registry zurückgesetzt, was nur bei sehr alten Vorversionen erforderlich ist, aber eine Neuinstallation von Titan erfordert)
 Titan Switch wurde eingehend getestet und geprüft. Es empfiehlt sich dennoch unbedingt, das Manual zu lesen - so ist generell bei Titan eine Installation nur in aufsteigender Versions-Reihenfolge vorgesehen, und beim Deinstallieren wird stets die aktuell aktive Version entfernt.

 I constantly try to keep Titan Switch compatible with the current Titan version as well as with previous versions. Thus there are various versions of Titan Switch available. Usually you can simply use the latest one. Updating is straight-forward: just download and execute the latest installer.
-TitanSwitch started with Version 1.0, which is not compatible with Titan v12 or later but may help switching really ancient (pre v9) versions (used it myself from v7 until v11).

-When switching between Titan v12 and any previous version please be aware of the different licensing. E.g. when attempting to start Titan One (v11) while already switched to v12, Titan One will not start, and the next start after switching back to v11 reveals an invalid licence. Thus, when using Titan One, switch to v11 before you launch it.

 However, problems appeared when switching/installing previous versions, due to the way how TitanSwitch tried to compensate for the changes in Titan. In April 2021 TitanSwitch v2.0 was released, which gets rid of many compromises from the past. In particular the handling of the registry and services has been greatly improved, resulting in CITP and WebAPI working for any switched version (WebAPI from v10 on as this is the first Titan version which inludes it).
-Starting with Titan v15.1 Titan Mobile has been integrated into Titan Go and isn't a standalone program any more. This has been accomodated for in TitanSwitch v2.1, released 20th January 2022. More details regarding the development/history are available in the readme.txt.

+**<fs large>This requires you to rebuild your repository (install all Titan versions which you need to switch between, and import them into your repository) after installing TitanSwitch 2.0/2.1.</fs>**
 In order to achieve this the installer offers to remove all incompatible versions from the repository (you can however do this manually if wou wish). Also, optionally the registry is cleaned from any remnants from Titan v14/TitanSwitch v1.5. Choose this option if you had the a.m. problems to install older Titan versions.
-Titan v15, upon installation, deletes the old licence and old capture personalities.

 Thus, when switching back to a non-AvoKey version (v11 or older), you need to get a new licence. Also, any Titan version older than v14 will complain about the Capture library not being installed. Simply download and install the fixture libraries for the versions you need from https://personalities.avolites.com/. The various capture libraries happily live side by side, and TitanSwitch makes sure licence and personalities are retained while versions are switched.

-Titan Switch has been thoroughly tested and checked. However, you are strongly encouraged to read the user manual - e.g. Titan only accomodates for installing in ascending version order. And, when uninstalling, always the currently active version will be removed.
