The default path is c:\Program Files\ Actual Results: Two products installed... Expected Results: The installer try to get the actual installation path and use it. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info:
don't think it's bug Mike, what do you think?
This is definitely a bug. Repro updating from 6.2.7.1 x64 to 6.3.4.1 x64 or to 6.4.0.3 x64. Not reproducible updating inside major version - i.e. from to 6.4.0.1 x64 to 6.4.0.3 x64.
