SQL Search won't install with side by side install of SSMS 18x and 19x

Margo

I have SSMS 18.12 installed along w/ SQL Search.  That has been working great for a long time!  However... I installed SSMS 19.02.  Per Microsoft's doc, that's a side by side install.  I can run both simultaneously.  But I don't seem to be able to install SQL Search into SSMS 19.  I downloaded that latest from the website, but when I run it, it just displays a window that says it is already installed.

Hi @Margo,

Can you try uninstalling SQL Search, then try installing using this installer?

@chrisqtran Yes, that process worked.  SQL Search now shows up in both versions of SSMS. Thank you!
