Removing Old PowerChurch Version after V14 Upgrade

We've recently installed v.14 of PowerChurchPlus, and after a decent period I'd like to remove v.11.5. Do I have to be careful of anything during the removal or will the standard Windows 11 uninstall take care of things?

As long as you select the correct version of Powerchurch in the 'Windows Programs and Features" module which you find under the Windows Control Panel (not the SETTINGS), you'll be fine.

I keep PC 11.5 program installed (with a separate backup) in case I need to restore from the last backup done on ver 11.5 before upgrading to PC ver 14 because I did not think that you could restore a 11.5 backup to PC ver 14.
Thank you.

You won't be able to just restore an 11.5 backup into 14 after the fact, but it does allow you to upgrade directly from a backup.
Below is a link to a video we published showing how to get rid of the converted data and get back to the original upgrade prompt, should you need it:
