3889	Allow both OM32 and OM64 to function on the same PC	massimo ceraolo	somebody	"A lot of us is currently making comparisons between 32bit and 64 bit of OM.
Some comparisons involve time measuremaments, that are to be performed on the same PC to be significant.
Because of this it would be useful to have on the same PC both versions. 
Using Virtual machines does not help since they affect performance.

In the past I got the suggestion to do as follows:
- install a version (say on Openmodelica64)
- rename the folder (say Openmodelica64_)
- install the new version in a new folder (say Openmodelica32)
- rename the first folder again (say again to Openmodelica64).

This has worked for a while, but does not work any more.
In fact, when I run the 64 bit version, OM recalls something from the 32 bit one, and conflicts arise.

Is it possible to find a way, without spending too much time on this, to allow us to use both a 32bit and a 64 bit OM version on the same PC?"	defect	closed	high	Future	*unknown*		wontfix
