Working with two different TB versions on the same machine

Hi Context : Mac OS X 10.11.6, and also Windows 10, on virtual and physical machines Due to the main changes impacting external modules between TB 52.9.1 and TB 60, I would like to user those two versions whithin the same user account, before migrating to TB 60. Is it possible to create a specific profile for TB 60 beside my TB 52 profiles and to have TB 60 stuck into this profile ? When I want to launch TB, is it mandatory to first launch Profile Manager and choose the convenient one ?

Is there another way to have the two versions working separately from each other ?

Thanks in advance Paul

Chosen solution

I found a solution : I created a specific profile to test TB 60 and I changed my settings to have TB asking what profile to use before actually launching instead of having a default profile. So the two versions 52.9.1 and 60.3.0 can gently coexist.

No more question at this time.
