Having two versions installed on windows

[developer992]

Yes, I know, windows is not my primary OS of choice either but we all have bills to pay so I have to put up with it

That being said, when poetry 2.0 changed pyproject.toml syntax, everything broke

I have a bunch of projects on 1.8.x with old format syntax

I want to upgrade poetry.

But poetry init generates a different file, incompatible with old one format.

Upgrading 20 projects and bothering 10 cooworkers will take time and effort (there is this plugin https://pypi.org/project/poetry-plugin-migrate/ I haven't tried yet)

How can i upgrade, and use poetry 2.x on a new project and still keep old version for older projects?

You can install multiple versions of Poetry with a suffix. See https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installing-with-pipx under "Install Poetry (advanced)"
