Hello.

Today I installed EDP Pro v6 over v4.5.2.2.

My v4.5.2.2 was installed in D:\Program Files\...
I downloaded v6 and launched the installer without uninstalling v4.5.2.2.
I expected the installer of v6 to prompt me the old directory when I tried to install v6, but instead it suggested me to install EDP Pro to directory C:\Program Files\ (not D:).
By chance, I updated today some other applications (from other companies), and they handled their update properly - they suggested the old existing directory as a default for the new installation.
But EDP Pro v6 installer seems to suggest the default directory without dependence on location of existing (installed) version.
Is this a bug of EDP Pro installer, or intentional behaviour?

Thank you.

Judging by the directory name (C:\Program Files), were you installing a 64-bit build? Did you only have a 32-bit build installed before? If so, it explains the installer behavior.

No, I was installing 32-bits installer in 32-bits Windows over 32-bits old version.

I see. After checking our installation scripts, this behavior is intentional. It is to allow user to have multiple versions of ExamDiff Pro. However, if you update, say, version 6.0 with a newer build the installer will remember where 6.0 is installed (separately for 32- and 64-bit builds).
