From version V7.00 (release 7025R041), the D2000 system allows the operation of several D2000 system installations on one computer, but not at the same time.
...
Installation procedure:
- Using the program Registry Editor (regedit) create the new subkey D2000 in the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft.
- Create the subkey Installed in the key D2000.
- In the key Installed, create the subkey whose name contains the complete path to the directory where the application was installed into. The key name must contain slashes (/), not backslashes (\).
Example: If the path to the directory is c:\d2000\d2000.e70\, the key will be c:/D2000/D2000.E70. - In this key, create the string value called Base and set up the name of the key of particular keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft as its value.
Example:
We need 2 installations of the D2000 system on one computer. The first installation is to be called Install1 and the second installation is Install2. Install1 is to be installed into the directory c:\d2000\Install1\ and Install2 into the directory c:\d2000\Install2\.
A. Installation of Install1:
- Using the D2000 Setup program, install Install1 into the directory c:\D2000\Install1\. The D2000 Setup program automatically adds the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000V70 into the Registry.
- Rename this key (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000V70) to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\Install1.
- Create the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000 and then the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000\Installed in it.
- Create the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000\Installed\c:/D2000/Install1/ .
- In the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000\Installed\c:/D2000/Install1/ (see the picture bellow - 1), create the string value Base (2) and set up its value to D2000Install1 (3).
- Points 4 and 5 provide that the D2000 system is to be started from the directory (and subdirectories) c:\D2000\Install1\ and its configuration is to be placed in the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\Install1 (4).
- Installation of Install1 is complete.
B. Installation of Install2:
- Install2 is to be installed into the directory c:\d2000\Install2. The D2000 Setup program automatically adds the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000V70 into the Registry.
- Rename the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000V70 to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\Install2.
- Create the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000\Installed\c:/D2000/Install2/.
- In the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\D2000\Installed\c:/D2000/Install2/, create the string value Base and set up its value to D2000Install2.
- Points 4 and 5 provide that the D2000 system is to be started from the directory (and subdirectories) c:\D2000\Install2\ and its configuration is to be placed in the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft\Install2.
- Installation of Install2 is complete.
These D2000 system installations will store their values into the particular subkeys of the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ipesoft - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ipesoft\D2000Install1, and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ipesoft\D2000Install2.

The attached Ipesoft_multiinstall.reg file contains the registry branch Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipesoft with information about installed multiple versions (10.1.39, 12.0.61, 12.2.65, 12.2.67, 21.0.70, 21.1.72, 21.1.73, 22.0.74).
The attached Ipesoft_multiinstall_WOW6432.reg file contains the registry branch Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Ipesoft with information about redirection to the 64-bit branch (RegistryViewRedirect entry), so that even 32-bit D2000 programs look for configuration in the 64-bit branch on 64-bit Windows.
