Question on accessing BTC and BCH chains on the same machine

Good day,

Could someone give me some advice on how to access the BTC and BCH chains on the same machine? Namely, I currently have BUCash v1.1.0.0 installed and would like to be able to use Bitcoin Core so that I can access the BTC chain. However, I'm concerned that installing Bitcoin Core could overwrite the blockchain data stored by BUCash in the Roaming folder (Windows 10). I'd like to make it clear that I intend to use both chains on a regular basis, so this is why I'm posting this.

I would also like to know if it's possible to configure both clients to share the blockchain data before block 478,558 (all blocks before the hard fork) to save some disk space.

Thank you.
