![[Standard Install]
Build one version of the High-performance Embedded Workshop environment in one PC as is conventionally practiced. If the High-performance Embedded Workshop version included in the package that you are installing is newer than the existing environment, the High-performance Embedded Workshop currently present in the PC will be updated to the new version.](/image/renesas/im_env_01_gl.gif)
![[Multi-install]
Build multiple High-performance Embedded Workshop environments in one PC. This install feature permits you to prepare multiple environments comprised of different High-performance Embedded Workshop versions. When performing a multi-installation, only one specified environment out of the multiple environments you](/image/renesas/im_env_02multi_gl.gif)
![If when installing a High-performance Embedded Workshop environment you install the Auto Update Utility too, the High-performance Embedded Workshop environment thus installed becomes the object to be auto-updated. Selection of objects to be auto-updated and various other settings are applied to each environment separately. Note, however, that it is only the active environment that is actually auto-updated.
[Standard Install]
The installed environment can always be kept up-to-date by the auto-update facility. (Or it can be chosen not to be auto-updated and fixed to the current version.)](/image/renesas/im_au_01_gl.gif)
![[Multi-install]
Selection of objects to be auto-updated can be set for each environment separately. Therefore, it is possible to prepare an environment that will always be kept up-to-date and an environment that will be fixed to the current version independently of each other, and also to switch between these environments to choose the one to be used. In this multi-install case, furthermore, only the currently active High-performance Embedded Workshop environment is auto-updated.](/image/renesas/im_au_02multi_gl.gif)
The Install Manager is a new installation utility that has been introduced into the installer part of Renesas tools. In addition to the conventional standard install feature, it now offers a multi-install feature that permits you to build multiple High-performance Embedded Workshop environments in a single PC. Refer to this page for the background behind the introduction of the Install Manager and examples for making use of it.
