My question is if there is a specific way to make coexist chrome 32 and 64 bits version. I have a windows 7 64 bits and I recently install chrome 64 bits to test some java applets, surprisingly the 64 bits version is installed in the 32 bits folder (C:\Program Files (x86)) overriding the 32 bit version. Actually the installer creates two exe files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application chrome.exe and old_chrome.exe. First I suppose that chrome.exe opens the 64 bit version and old_chrome.exe opens the 32 bit. However both open 64 bits version.
I need the two versions installed to make test with both, I don't care about plugins (I know that there are some plugins that doesn't work, and for example flash hasn't a 64 bit version), the thing is that I want to have both versions installed correctly on the same machine. Is there a way or workaround to do so?
Answer
use http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/google_chrome_portable which is essentially a clever start-script pointing to the chrome-files in some local folder.
