    Create 2 folders and rename the shortcut to V26 for example.

    You sure can. I keep my latest version in my "Applications" folder on my Mac and I have all older versions in a Buildbox folder somewhere else on my drive. This allows me to easily go back and work on older games I made in older versions prior to testing it out on a newer version. Also, you may find that a game you're currently working on, doesn't play nice on the latest release for whatever reason, so it's always good practice to keep some older versions of Buildbox to hand.
