Differences between CYPE Menu and CYPE Menu FI
The CYPE Menu and CYPE Menu FI programs act as entry points or launchers for the main CYPE apps. There are, however, the following differences:
- CYPE Menu is an app you can use to install individual apps. When you install CYPE Menu, it is installed on an empty system, with no previously installed apps. From this point onwards, you must install each app before you can run it. This is the recommended option if you do not wish to install all the apps or want to keep track of which apps have been installed.
- Furthermore, installing CYPE Menu FI automatically installs all the apps included in it. Therefore, only a single installation process is required. From this point onwards, users can run each app directly. Keep in mind, however, that CYPE Menu FI is not available in the latest version of CYPE's apps. Therefore, this is the recommended option if you wish to install all the apps included in CYPE Menu FI in one go and do not need to work with the latest version.

| The CYPE Menu installation is located in "C:\CYPE Ingenieros\Version 20XX\CYPE Menu", where '20XX' is the year of the CYPE Menu version (for example, for CYPE Menu 2026.a, the path is C:\CYPE Ingenieros\Version 2026\CYPE Menu FI). Within this path, apps installed from CYPE Menu are stored in app folders named "app_XX" (where XX is the identification number for each app). The CYPE Menu FI is located in "C:\CYPE Ingenieros\Version 20XX\CYPE Menu FI", where '20XX' is the year of the CYPE Menu FI version (for example, for CYPE Menu FI 2026.a, the path is C:\CYPE Ingenieros\Version 2026\CYPE Menu FI). This is where all the files for all the apps included in CYPE Menu FI are stored. The fact that the apps are stored in a single path allows files to be shared and reduces the amount of disk space required. The installations of CYPE Menu and CYPE Menu FI are separate, and the programs installed in CYPE Menu are neither shared nor recognised by CYPE Menu FI, or vice versa. |
