Fab32 vs. Fab64

[gorba8.9]

If I bought Fab32, can I also use Fab64?

And does it install in parallel, for testing reasons?

Yes and Yes.
It will, however, use the same log folder under User>Documents>DVDFab 10.

Yes, but one can customize that behaviour in the setup menu. I created a "DVDFab 10" folder for the 32 bit application and a "DVDFab 10 x64" folder for the x64 application. This separates the log folders and subsequently each version uses their own log files.

That's a great idea.
Thanks

BUMP,

I had already done that on my Windows 7, x64.

I have since changed to Windows 10, x64 (New comp)(Much more powerful) Is there any advantage in having both DVDFab 10 and DVDFab 10 x64 coexisting on my computer?

I understand that they CAN coexist, what I am asking is WHY?

mdgboxx Different users may have different reason, but I keep both versions for testing purposes. As you know both versions are updated quite frequently and sometimes there is a small bug that appears in an update of the 64 bit version but not 32 bit. Or a copy will fail in the 64 bit version but run ok in the 32 bit version. This not a common occurrence but has happened a few times times, so I always keep both on my PC, just in case.

As you pointed out, it is not common but it does happen. 64 bit version is a little finicky at times. It definitely answers: "WHY" for me.

Thank you, LaciBacsi

I know you can't use the YouTube downloader module on the 64 bit version. It'll only work with the 32-bit version, so that might be a reason for some to have both on one PC.

There are some slight differences between the versions, which have varied over time and will probably continue as development continues.
