Multi Version Installation

It can be very useful to install each version of the tools in its own directory so that users can revert to an older version of the tool if necessary.

At CadEnhance we use this technique so that we can easily switch to a customers current tool version to try and reproduce an issue they might be having.

We like to use a base directory named D:\CE_INSTALLS

and then we create a directory for each version named vxx.xx.xx underneath the CE_INSTALLS directory.

The Ready to Install Version message can be used to determine the version directory

In this case we would use D:\CE_INSTALLS\v21.8.2

we can use the browse button and create the directory structure we need

or we can just type the resulting path in the Unzip to folder entry

Then we press the unzip Button

Then add the CE_ROOT_DIR environment Variable to point to the CE_INSTALLS\vxx.xx.xx\cadEnhance directory you want to use

In this case, the latest installed version is v21.8.2 so our CE_ROOT_DIR would be set to D:\CE_INSTALLS\v21.8.2\cadEnhance

In windows you can create generic shortcuts to the tools you want to use and insert the %CE_ROOT_DIR%\tools\toolName
