If you have installed any prerelease version of Expression Web 2, including the Expression Web 2 Beta, you will be prompted during installation to first uninstall the prerelease Expression Web 2 components.
Expression Web 2 may be installed with Expression Web 1 without issue. You will not be prompted to either upgrade or uninstall Expression Web 1. Please note that you will have to update any desktop shortcuts so that you are running the expected version of Expression Web.
When you install Expression Web 2 on a computer that has or previously had Expression Web 1 installed, custom settings will not be automatically migrated. For example, to move custom code snippets between versions of the product, go to the Expression Web 1 user setting directory at \Documents and Settings\[USER_NAME]\Application Data\Microsoft\Expression\Web Designer\Snippets and copy the SnippetsCustom.xml file to the Expression Web 2 user settings directory at \Documents and Settings\[USER_NAME]\Application Data\Microsoft\Expression\Web 2\Snippets.
