Smart Upgrade HCL Notes from Version 11 to Version 14, the installation path is being changed to the default installation directory instead of retaining the existing installation path.

When upgrading HCL Notes from version 11.0.1 to version 14.0 or later using Smart Upgrade, the installation path is being changed from the existing 32-bit installation directory to the default 64-bit installation directory.

For example, if HCL Notes V11 is installed on a different drive, such as D:\ or E:, the upgrade process changes the installation path to the default location, such as C:\Program Files\HCL\Notes.

The expected behavior is for the upgraded version to be installed in the same existing directory where the current HCL Notes installation resides, rather than changing to the default installation path.
