Can I have multiple installations of SH3D on the same computer?

Is it possible to have more than one configuration of SH3D installed on the same computer? That is, one version with several libraries of furniture models installed and another with only the models which come with SH3D?

In particular, I'd like to be able to verify that I can send a design to someone else and they'll be able to see and manipulate it without having to install furniture libraries or plugins that they don't already have.

I'm using SH3D v7.1 under Windows 10 Pro with several furniture libraries installed. I do not currently plan to install any of the plugins, but that might change.

If necessary, I suppose I could run it in a VM, but I'd rather avoid that complication if possible.

When saving a project, all models are included in the saved file. So, when you send your design to someone else, they will see it as you designed it, regardless of whether or not they have the same models installed.

Thanks!
I think that solves my concern.

As a side note: since additional models are embedded in the file, this may become quite large. Before sending/uploading you may choose the option "save and compress" from the file menu to reduce the file size.
