Hi,

I haven't installed a new version since 1309 cause it was totally stable for me with all my programmed studies.
I wanted now to test the latest SC version but it seems you made a downloader installer and there are no current full builds.
This is a huge problem cause I have 10 installed instances, and every time I update SC I download an installer and I have an auto script that does all the work.
Now it seems I need to run this installer 10 times... choose each folder (10 times)... it will download the needed same files (10 times)... and will close after each installer (10 times)... which I need to run again (yes, 10 times).

I understand the benefits of such a tool, but please add support to select multiple installation folders cause this is a pain.
And if a build gives me problems? this process will start all over just to get a previous build version... 10 times :-\

That's way too much babysitting.

You will need to write a command line batch file that copies the Sierra Chart executable files from one installation to your other 9 installations.

These are the folders and files that you will need to copy:
ACS_Source
Graphics
NPP
Rim

icudt52.dll
icuin52.dll
icuuc52.dll
Qt5Core.dll
SierraChart.exe
SierraChartStudies.dll
SpreadsheetFileConverter.exe


When using the new File >> New Instance feature, those instances are updated automatically by Sierra Chart. Refer to:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_DTCServer.php#UsingDTCServerForDataAndTradingInAnotherSCInstance

Also the new installer has command line parameters to specify the installation folder and auto start the installation. We will try to get these documented soon.
