After starting the installer, at first, the access to registers is checked. If this check fails, the installer is probably running with the insufficient rights. It must be installed with the administrator rights, as it works with the registry files and the file system. If a user has does not the have proper access rights, he is informed about it and the installation is stopped.
In the next step, the installer checks and sets the redirection of registers, as 64-bit operating systems contains contain both 32-bit and 64-bit registers, which are accessible depending on the running process (32-bit or 64-bit). The D2000 System involves both 32-bit and 64-bit processes, therefore you must set the reading from just one type of the registry type. Consequently, the reading is redirected to the registers corresponding to the operating system (i.e. 32-bit system -> 32-bit registers, 64-bit system -> 64-bit registers).
If this message occurs:
there is set it suggests that the reverse redirection is set (all processes work with 32-bit registers). It This means , the that registry redirection has been already set before installation, however to the reverse on your computer before but to the opposite of the default value. In this case, the user should consider whether to keep these settings or not. If these settings remain, the D2000 System instances , installed in the past , are functional, too. However However, if any no instances have not been are installed, it is preferable better to change this setting to the default value.
The D2000 System is not dependent on the usage of 32-bit or 64-bit registers, but it cannot detect the change of this setting. Therefore, we recommend you to use using the same redirection for all instances of the D2000 System and do not change changing it.
Warning: The registry settings above mentioned remain changed only if the D2000 System has been modified in a computer (i.e. installed, upgraded, or uninstalled). If the user decides not to do any change changes and aborts the installation, the original settings remain.

If any instance has already been installed on the computer, the option "Change instance" is automatically chosen. There may be installed up to 16 instances on one computer at the same time. If this number is achieved you cannot add a new instance, only change or remove the existing ones.
The information about the individual instances are is read from the registers, which contains their where the instance name, instance number, and installation time of installationare written.

The name and path to the destination directory cannot contain any blank spacespaces.
