v2024 Update 1: Install to 32 & 64 bit directories

I installed at 32-bit WinDev only (need Analysis to run in 32-bit for legacy OBDC drivers) in the default directory (C:\PC SOFT\WINDEV 2024).
-- Used Install.exe /32 as referenced in the 3rd reply to a previous thread (https://forum.pcsoft.fr/en-US/pcsoft.us.windev/69798-force-32-bit-installation-windev-64-bit-operating/read.awp…)
-- Tested it and Analysis properly connects to 32-bit ODBC data sources.

After which, I installed a 64-bit combo (WinDev, WebDev, & Mobile) in the standard Windows application directory (C:\Program Files\PC SOFT\v2024).

When I run 2024 Update 1, it only recognizes the second 64-bit installation in C:\Program Files\PC SOFT\v2024.
-- Guessing there is a shared file/registry entry and the last directory "won".

Is there a way to force the Update to run against the first installation (32-bit) directory (C:\PC SOFT\WINDEV 2024)?
-- I'd much prefer the have both 32 & 64 bit on one computer, and obviously I can install on separate computers to work around this issue.

Thanks

Also have the same issues installing Native Database drivers.

Installation only recognizes the last installation folder.
