    Generally, saying "this isn't working" without saying why isn't very helpful :)
    Do you get any error messages?

    Ok ill say more details.

    Well I have Unity 4.5.2 Pro Installed, I can open it and run it fine. So I went and downloaded 4.6 beta 17 and ran the installer, and it just over-wrote the 4.5.2 pro files and then just opens with the free version.

    It's always a good idea to keep the older version when installing a beta.

    Basically install the beta to a different location than the default or it will overwrite the pro version.
