Hi all,

I’ve not managed to do this yet, but it would be great if possible: is it possible to run both Developer and Dashboard in my local version of KDB? This is on my home machine, trying things out, so it’s on the personal/ free licence.&nbsp;

I’ve tried to find documentation on this, however I haven’t found anything yet.

Kind regards,

Sven

Both products are launched via “q” on the command line so there should be no issues doing this.
