    Have a consistent presence of a terminating \ in the PIHOME and PIHOME64 environment variables

    By default, PIHOME is "C:\Program Files (x86)\PIPC" and PIHOME64 is "C:\Program Files\PIPC\". For new installations, please consider either having the terminating \ on both or removing the terminating \ from both. The current inconsistency can con...

    Remove PI System Explorer (Legacy 32-bit) from PI AF Client

    When PI AF Client is installed, it includes a program called "PI System Explorer (Legacy 32-bit)". Please remove this from PI AF Client. The continued support of 32-bit PI AF SDK makes sense, since 3rd-party programs may still depend on the 32-bit...

    Windows authentication of clients

    Installer screen should read 'PI Data Archive Install Directory' instead of 'PI Data Archive Directory'

    For an upgrade - misleading - could be interpreted as the folder where PI archives currently reside.

    Add the “Create Timestamps” functionality back into the OPC DA Server product

    In the PI OPC DA/HDA Server 2010 product, there was a “Create Timestamps” functionality (found in the OPCServerConfig Tool). This option had the PI OPC Server create timestamps for OPC clients. I rely on this functionality heavily for an OPC clien...

    Have the PI OPC DA Server not rely on cache files (SavedNamespace.xml) for tag changes

    It would be beneficial to some customers to not have to restart the PI OPC DA Server or delete the SavedNamespace.xml in order to keep track of tag changes.
