We have your back. I'm not going to lie to you it will be a big change but it is well worth it. In a way you should forget most of what you know about Sonar 8.5 and sort of start from scratch. It would be a good idea to get Scott's book when is comes out on Platinum. 
 
Your kind words are further proof of your quality of posting.
 
I posted that because you asked great questions that got interesting responses. It was in part how you framed the questions that were responsible for the good answers.
 
Its good to have you here.

I did a manual install of the help + tutorials and it gave no option to save all this stuff on my D drive. After installing I manually moved it to my D drive Cakewalk Content.

Gerry,
Can you tell me where Command Center puts the help + tutorials, or is it now called ("Local Documentation"?) so I can do the same type of move?
Thanks,
Steve

Yes it's called Local Documentation. Otherwise you have to use online Help, which I didn't like that much, back a year and a half ago when this thread was. Maybe it's better now, but I do like the local help. Be sure to select it here:
 
Preferences > File > Advanced > Tick "Always use Local help"
 
Also you'll find lots of good info in this thread. Check out the preferences in Command Center, choose verbose install (I think that's the term). They have improved Command Center you can now specify where to save all the downloads so your C drive doesn't' become bloated. Because of improvements in Command Center I always use it and never do manual installs unless something doesn’t work automatically in Command Center.
 
 I still install the 32 bit version of Platinum also and have to do that manually by going to my download folder. Most of the FX installs lets you choose 32 and 64 bit during install. Always choose advanced during and install. Great to see you Steve, let me know if you have any more questions. I'm very pleased with Platinum after a difficult transition from 8.5 and 32 bit to 64 bit.
