I have an old version of Magix Video Edit Pro 2015, I am trying to get the instalation, but I don't know if is necessary o erase the old versión 2015 first, before install the new version 2021?
Hi Luis and welcome to the user to user forum.
With your current program being that that old I would first have to ask two questions.
What version of Windows are you running and will your current computer specs be sufficient to run the latest version of Movie Edit Pro?
I ask because you ask if you should remove the old copy first, which makes me wonder how you are running Movie Edit Pro 2015 at present.

Hello CubeAce, the windows version is Windows 10. After see you kindle answer, I suppouse my question is wrong, I am trying to download the instalation program, I received the first archive and I was triying to download the rest to instal the program, but this keep in pause and I can't get the rest of the parts of the program. For this reason I thoug than were necessary to unistal the old program, I supouse that is necesary to do that, before download the program for instalation. I hope that be more clear. My problem is that I can't get download the program since the Magix web page. Thanks for your comments in advance.
Hi Luis.
Some parts of the program can be mistaken for a virus by antivirus or Windows defender and both need to be disabled to download fully.

For other forum members, do you have multiple versions of MEP installed?
Hi
You can install Movie Edit Pro (MEP) 2021 alongside MEP 2015 - when the installer runs, if asked do you want to replace MEP 2015 do not do so.
However, as @CubeAce has mentioned, is your computer up to specification to run the program - its demands on hardware are more stringent then MEP 2015.
What is your computer specification - see this topic for details of what is required, please quote the processors and graphics card names an models in full.

Hi Al,
At one time I had as many as six versions installed. That was on my XP PC, when I was responding much more frequently to forum queries, often from users with old versions.But now I have only 2014, 2016 and 2017.

Dear John E Baker: Hello, thanks for answer. Please, maybe I can´t expres in a correct form my problem. I am trying to get the instalation programs. I were into the Magix page, did my register and found the exe file, made download, started the aplication, so appear a dialog box, and start the download the programs, but it only is in pause and there is no any other option, I repeat the action and happend the same, I discover the processor is Intel Celeron CPU J3060 1.63GHz / Ram 8.00 GB, but I don´t know if that is the problem, for that to can´t download the instalation parts of the Magix Movie Edit Pro 2021. Only start the application, but this didn´t work.
CubeAce suggested me to put in off the antivirus. I did that but didn´t work.
Can you help me please? thanks in advance for your help.
Hi Luis.
I'm afraid your processor and quite possibly the rest of your system can't support the program. The processor would need to support hyper-threading and preferably be a four core processor. Your processor does not support hyper-threading. Even if it did, the base clock core would struggle with the data throughput.
Whether you would use it or not, the program now supports 8K editing and subsequently the hardware needed to run the program has to be higher than for earlier versions.
On the other hand if you don't need to edit footage from newer cameras there is little need to update the program but for editing even mobile phone footage now the files need newer editing packages.

Ok, I commit a mistake buying this program. Thank you very much for your support. Have a nice day God Bless you.
