Can you have Arduino 1.8.5 and this working concurrently?

I'm hesitant to change for fear of breaking my working install.



Yes. I've had both installed while 2.0 was in beta, and can confirm that the portable installation mode that a sibling comment mentioned does keep the two separate.


Arduino works in a "portable" configuration, where it works entirely out of a directory of your choosing.
