0.8.0001 and 0.8.0004 -- Split installations?

For some reason, I am experiencing a strange installation problem that started right when I installed 0.8.0004.

 

I have Rhino 4.0 and 5.0 (latest WIP) installed.  When I installed 0.8.0004 (replacing 0.8.0001), I started having problems.  Here is the scenario:

 

1) In Rhino 4.0, my GH comes up as 0.8.0004, but none of my add-ins appear in the toolbars (Kangaroo, Weaverbird, Karamba, Geco, etc).  Furthermore, and more strangely, it appears that the new features of "Version 4" are non-existent, and that the version running is actually 0.8.0001.

 

2) In Rhino 5.0, my GH comes up as 0.8.0001, but all of my plug-ins are available, and, more strangely, it appears that Version 4 features are available.  However, it continually prompts me to update my grasshopper.

 

Any ideas/solutions?

 

Thanks,

Marc

    I had a similar issue.  The installer is putting the Grasshopper directory in the following location on a Win7 machine....

     

    C:\Users\nmiller\AppData\Roaming\Grasshopper

     

    Not the usual Program Files Rhino Plug-in folder.  I had a similar confusing time verifying my versions.

     

    (anyone know of a way to change this at the time of install?... it doesn't look like that option is provided.)
