SQL instance name

Hi

According to the installation guide, Alchemy uses the default MS SQL Express instance name (MSSQLEXPRESS).
It is possible to change it without harming the functionality of the software?

I have already a default MSSQLEXPRESS instance I use for another purpose (MS Visual Studio) and I prefer keep separate both types of data.

Cheers
GG

In fact, for a "normal" user it's not easy to create a customized SQL instance, so probably a separate instance called ALCHEMY would be a good idea.
Like ACROSS for Across
