...don't do it - I did so and lost all my rules. Before you uninstall it, export all your rules...

Hazel 5 does have my rules.

a friend on Big Sur - said the install did remove Hazel 4 automatically but not for me on Mohave

Do not click the Uninstall button unless you want every trace of Hazel removed from your machine. If you are updating, you don't want to uninstall.

I just installed 5.0 on Mohave and am seeing the same thing. Both 4.4.5 & 5.0 running at the same time. I asked a similar question and just to avoid the potential for completely borking both, just stopped 4.4.5 in the pref pane.

When I installed 5 on Catalina it appears to of removed version 4 automatically, well I don't see the preference pane which leads me to this conclusion.

p.s. Instant purchase, well done on v5
