You didn't say which package you are upgrading to. I'm presuming it's not the PlusPak, which is just for upgrading from last year's UltraPak (or its equivalent, as you can do PlusPak upgrades every year from an original UltraPak). So what you get will be a complete install of the Pak you purchase. You will be able to install that on a new machine.

Since you mentioned CD's, that seems too indicate that what you currently have is probably the ProPak or maybe the MegaPak of 2012. The higher end Paks came on an external UDB drive.


There are ways to reinstall that old version on your new machine without a CD player (but you will need to initially be able to read the CDs on the old machine). PM me if you need to know how to do that.


But if you are upgrading from ProPak to ProPak or MegaPak to MegaPak, you will get everything the old version offered plus all the new content and even if they send you a CD, the content will be available in your online account and you can just download and install from there.

Let us know which Pak you are buying. It should be a complete install.

Note that if you decide to first install 2012 and then install 2021 on top of that install, you will need to run the cleanup routine, since PGMusic has changed their file and folder structure since then. Just ask in the forum here if you need help.

Hope this helps.
