E10.1.500 Client Installer opens MES and not full Epicor by default

[aidacra (Nathan your friendly neighborhood Support Engineer)]

UPDATE: the updated client installer is included in 10.1.500.11 but it requires a manual step to apply.

What I needed to do after applying 10.1.500.11:

1. Navigate to \ERP10\ERP10.1.500.0\Updates\ERP10.1.500.11\ClientDeployment\ClientInstaller.
2. Copy the E10client.exe.
3. Navigate to \ERP10\ERP10.1.500.0\ClientDeployment\ClientInstaller.
4. Paste and overwrite existing E10client.exe.
5. When you install new clients from \[servername]\ERP10.1.500.0Deployment\ClientInstaller, this client will now create separate shortcuts for MES and office.
   

This isn’t documented in the update guide, so Support will see if it’s possible to have the patches auto apply updated client installers in the clientdeployment directory when there is a change and/or document this in the upgrade guides.
