Splunkforwarder not upgrading in correct folder

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to upgrade splunk forwarder on Windows servers using the following command line :

msiexec.exe /a splunkforwarder-6.4.3-b03109c2bad4-x64-release.msi AGREETOLICENSE=Yes /quiet

I tried also with msiexec.exe /i as mentioned in upgrade procedure : http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Forwarder/6.4.3/Forwarder/UpgradetheWindowsuniversalforwarder

In both cases, Splunk forwarder is installed in c:\Splunkforwarder instead of upgrading current version in C:\program files\Splunkforwarder (default installation folder).

Is there anything that I'm doing wrong please?

Thanks in advance.

Marc P.
