Why does CA licensing sometimes install into a Program Files subfolder now and not C:CA_LIC as it always has?

The latest CA licensing installation conforms to the CA installation standard by installing into the C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\CA_LIC folder if no previous C:\CA_LIC licensing folder is found on a machine. If, however, a C:\CA_LIC folder already exists on the machine, the new licensing will continue installing into that folder. Licensing packages that follow the installation standard are versions 1.52 and higher. The following issue may occur when downgrading licensing: If v1.52 or higher of licensing is installed on a computer with no previous licensing installed on it, then an earlier version of licensing is installed (downgrade of licensing), the earlier version will automatically install into the C:\CA_LIC folder, thus creating two CA_LIC folders (C:\CA_LIC and C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\CA_LIC ). To fix the problem, simply execute the mergecalic.exe found in the C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\CA_LIC folder or install the latest posted version of licensin
