I have Internet explorer and am thinking of changing it to something else, but do not want to delete it before I test out other browsers. Can I add another browser to my computer to test while I also keep and use Internet explorer?

Yes, you can install any number of web browsers that you wish to, you can even have them running at the same time.

Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

Create a new profile exclusively for each Firefox version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each Firefox version with its own profile.
