Patch installation path

Hi, Denis.

I've installed program (5.60) and then I've installed russian patch.
I have x64 OS Win7. In first case program installer by default set folder for x86 programs, but patch installer by default set folder for x64 programs (without (x86) postfix).
I think that patch installer not checks version of OS. If it's possible, correct it, please.

Best regards,
Andrey Evseenko.

Re: Patch installation path

Hi Andrey, welcome and thanks for your suggestion.

@All,
if you use the russian patch from

http://www.den4b.com/?x=downloads  >> Additional downloads >> ReNamer-5.60-Russian-Patch.zip

on an 64-bit OS
the installer 'rn5.60rus.exe' still wants
to install to 'C:\Program Files\ReNamer'
instead of 'C:\Program Files(x86)\ReNamer'

and shows you an error message  "PatchWise Updater - Wrong folder selected!" due the wrong path.

Solution:
In such case just use the [Browse...]-button and point to your real ReNamer "installation" folder yourself. Thanks.

Explanation:
Even if one can read the installation path from the registry (if you have used the ReNamer Installer version),
the maker of that patch may have not done so and only used the default path,
because OTOH the user may have just used the non-installer zip archive for the main app (where there is no note in the registry at all and you have to choose the right path anyway on yourself)

If you are interested please also read this note too >> ReNamer is not yet "certified" for Vista/7
