Extra "Buttons" - I assume I'm not the only one to find these "Easter Eggs"?

 

Now that I have upgraded .. Can I still use 2016 or No?

 

I don't see a 2016 Executable / "Start" / GO .. whatever to start 2016 instead of 2018.

Yes, you can still use 2016 they are completely independent. However, anything that has been opened in 2018 will no longer open in 2016.

I guess my 2018 ate the 2016 icon.

I am unable to start 2016, from my desktop icon or from the 2016 folder.

I get the floating calculator button too. Haven't tried clicking on it yet to see if it is active.

Call tech support.  I had the same problem and they helped change so I could still open 2016 projects

For me .. its "just THERE" it does not do anything or even "Clickable".  :)

 

The Calc above the floating Calc fir Overhang, seems to work fine.

I went into the Softplan 2016 (or whatever it ended up being called when 2018 was installed) and created my open "new shortcut"  Once I did that it opened up okay
