The installation script enables you to install several CPUs along one single installation path. This saves disk space and enables switching from one processor family to another without leaving the IDE.
Note:
It is possible to have separate installations on one machine. There is only one point to consider: The IDE uses
COM files, and for COM the IDE installation path is written into the Windows Registry. This registration is done in the installation setup. However, if there is a problem with the COM registration using several installations on one machine, the COM registration is done by starting a small batch file located in the
bin (by default
C:\Freescale\CW MCU V10.x\MCU\bin) directory. To do this, start the
regservers.bat batch file.
