I have had Ashampoo Photo Optimizer 7 for a few years now. Should I uninstall version 7 before installing version 8 or will the necessary files install without having to remove version 7?

Andre R, you can use all versions together, install the new version into another different folder

Andre R, As Ashampoo user who only downloads freebies, my experience is that you must uninstall the old version although if you want you can keep both, the new version will install separately, that is how it was a few years ago.

rww, they are almost identical, 2022 is a stripped down version of v8, the results are the same

I haven't used it yet but I had no problems downloading and installing, possibly because I already have an Ashampoo account.

I was surprised that as soon as I started the program I got an update - seems odd they didn't update the download to the new version.

My only complaint, is the problem I have with too many programs these days - why do they insist on having a black screen and white text? It's so painful on the eyes and I can see no option to change it.

Can this be used on .jpg images?

Alan Jones, a legit question, yes it supports many graphics formats, JPG JPEG are only a few of them. Beware that you degrade the quality of your picture with every time you resave it in a compressed and lossy format as JPG, use highest possible quality setting if you save in JPG.
