Hi All,

I’ve just cancelled my Setapp subscription due to their change in subscription and now per device licence on iOS.

I have a RW8 licence and want to install.

What’s the best way to do this? I have a tonne of add-ons and stacks.

Any help much appreciated!

I don’t have the setapp version, but my understanding is you will need to get the regular version from the realmac site or Here on release notes:

> **[RapidWeaver Release Notes](https://www.realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/releasenotes/)**
>
> RapidWeaver release notes, including links to download every version of RapidWeaver since 2004.

The Setapp versions default location for the add-ons folder is in a different place:  
[https://help.realmacsoftware.com/en/articles/1905575-where-is-the-rapidweaver-addons-folder](https://help.realmacsoftware.com/en/articles/1905575-where-is-the-rapidweaver-addons-folder)

I’m assuming you can change that location with the setapp version. If you haven’t then I would prior to repalcing the version.

@Aaron or @dan or anyone elese that has that version is there anything else?
