Ancestry.com does not maintain the version history, and some of the information they have released with updates is wrong.
I have verified the version numbers in the overview by reinstalling all these versions. Some installation notes are below.
The FTM Service Pack 1 notes state that SP1 will update the version number to 17.0.0.434, but that is wrong, SP1 updates FTM2008 to 17.0.0.440.
There are reports about additional versions. Replies from Ancestry.com to comments from users about this on the FTM blog did not document these versions or provide patches for them. The answers only suggested that those who have another version should remove and reinstall the application.
The FTM 2008 install program does refuse to install an older version of FTM2008 over a newer one, so the only way to install an older version is to remove the newer version first.
The FTM2008 RC1 confuses by sometimes identifying itself as FTM2008 Beta. FTM2008 RC1 will not install over FTM 2008 Beta.
The FTM2008 release offers to install over FTM2008 RC1, but claims network errors during the install. Remove FTM2008 RC1, and the install proceeds without incident.
Some installs demand a Windows restart. That is a nonsense demand. FTM2008 is a .NET application, and installation of .NET application does not need a Windows restart. The demand is bogus, and a violation of installation guidelines.
It is possible, and no problem, to install FTM2008 in addition to FTM16 or earlier versions. Just keep them in separate directories.
Renamed this resource from Family Tree Maker 2008 versions to New Family Tree Maker versions.
Added Mac OS X table.
