I appears that the Report Designers for 2024R2 is not backward compatible. This means a VAR that supports multiple version needs to reinstall Report Designed based on the customer version since you can not have multiple versions of Report Designer installed.

@dsimmerly I am pretty sure that you can just create a copy of the “Report Designer” folder, and move it to a location of your choice, ex C:\Report Designer\2024R2\. It will work just fine.

Gabriel is right. You don't even need to install the configuration tool. You can extract the .msi with a PowerShell script and run the utilities from the /data/ folder.

I was unable to get it to work with a Copy, but I was able to CUT it and then reinstall report designer. I didn’t have to extract anything, just cut and paste the report designer folder to a new folder. 

It would have been way easier if they just called it separate things and added it to the MSI, or had a separate install for just report designer, but I was able to get it to work.
