My guess would be they are the same. Just different way to use letters of the alphabet.

I don't get it, you mean the MC24.exe file? I believe that's used for Media Server, unless I'm mistaken.

MC24.exe is the command line launcher - see wiki https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/The_Command_Line
Media Center 24.exe is the main program executable.

If you double click MC24.exe it will run the launcher without parameters which defaults to launching MC in standard view.

EDIT: The wiki states that MC24.exe is only installed in the system folder, that changed some releases back and the launcher is also included in the MC program folder now.
