Re: [amibroker] AB on XP-64bit?

I just checked my Program Files where I had Ab 64 installed origionally, and I see that I have removed it. 
 
I did not try to run them at the same time. 
 
When I decided to stay with the 32 bit version, I apparently removed the 64 bit version.   Ron D

Can I install both the 32bit version in "Program Files (x86)" and also the 64bit in "Program Files" without them conflicting with one another?

If so, can I run the two simultaneously without conflict?

If so, can I backtest using 64bit version and IB's intraday data?
If so, anything special I have to do?

Again, thank you for your help.

You are right.  The 64 bit programs install to program files, the 32 bit install to program files (x86).

   I have never tried, so I'm not sure if it matters if you place them in a different directory.  I run AB 64 bit from the  program files directory.

I just got my new system up and running with XP-64bit SP2, and want to install AB Pro 5.20, and use it to its full advantage.  I also want to eventually use AB with IB.

My XP-64bit has two folders for programs, "Program Files" and "Program Files (x86)".  I guess that "Program Files" may be for 64bit programs, and "Program Files (x86)" for 32bit ones.  Is that correct?  Does it really matter?

Which folder should I install AB in, or does it matter?  What about IB TWS?

Are there any other questions I should be asking before proceeding with the installation?

Thanks for your help.
