NOTE: The install wizard does not check to see whether an existing path is already specified for the
Fabric Manager client. The install wizard uses the system path file, which causes multiple paths. Fabric

other applications to add additional path names due to the length of the Fabric Manager client paths. If
you see this problem, manually edit the system path to ensure that it contains only one Fabric Manager
client directory.
