Do I first remove my Burp Community edition before I install Burp Pro??

Hi All, I updated Burp Community edition last week, in kali linux. But had to remove old version to get new CE to work right. I just purchased the Burp Pro yesterday. Do I first remove my Burp Community edition before I install Burp Pro?? Or just download my license into my new burp community edition, and restart??? Not sure which way to do it? Any advise would be nice. Thank you

Hi Andrew, Burp Professional and Burp Community are two entirely separate products and should, by default, install in separate locations. You should be fine to leave Burp Community on your machine and then perform a separate install of Burp Professional (you will then need to use your license key after the installation has completed successfully in order to activate the Professional edition). You can obtain the Burp Professional installation file from the following location (if you have not already obtained it via your user account on portswigger.net): https://portswigger.net/burp/releases/professional-community-2021-8-2?requestededition=professional
