Simple way to migrate from 32 to 64 Version
« on: March 20, 2025, 02:56:09 am »
Hi guys,
we have a setup with more than 200 PC installed on EA 16.1 32 bit version.
We plan to upgrade to 17 and by the same time user the 64 Bit version.
During our tests we found that 32 and 64 bits version are installed side by side and 64 doesn't inherit from 32 bits config.
Is there an easy way to migrate and keep settings from 32 to 64 ?

Many thanks,

johann

We have not yet performed the migration, but have observed that the custom options are located elsewhere in the Windows Registry for the 64-bit version.

Maybe the following command in the shell could help:

reg copy "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Sparx Systems\EA400\EA\OPTIONS" "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Sparx Systems\EA64\EA\OPTIONS" /s

One could even use the syntax '[\\Machine\]Fullkey' to reach remote computers.
