Error description
Since CSDK 3.70 the name for the Start menu item for both versions (x86 and x64) of the product has changed to "IBM Informix Client SDK" This means that installing both products on the same Windows box will end in just one Menu entry for the last installed product. Previous versions of CSDK (e.g: 3.50) had a different name for the 32-bit and 64-bit versions. At the moment the only option to keep the current Start menu entry is to overwrite the shortcut name when launching the installer: e.g: C:\Infx\370fc4>installclientsdk.exe -DUSER_SHORTCUTS="C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\IBM Informix Client SDK (64-bit)" Or rename the entry before installing the new CSDK e.g.: C:\>ren "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\IBM Informix Client SDK" "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\ Start Menu\Programs\IBM Informix Client SDK (64-bit)"
Local fix
