My problem is that a seller is providing me with a 64 bit application (packaged in a 64 bit installer) , But it goes and installs the X86 (Program Files) folder and it keeps telling me exactly but I want to install it in the program file directory; As the 32 bit version does, the app's scripts are developed based on this assumption.
Can someone recommend me the best practices for Microsoft 64 bit application (link)?
Thanks in advance.
This can help:
Windows Installer on 64-bit operating system About
Is your vendor installing the app through an MSI file? If so, their app setup generator (WIX, InstallShield, etc.) should create an MSI that stores its components in the right places.
If not, and they are using custom scripts, then it is suggested that they start investing in learning WIX;)
In any way, following them the recommended guidelines And 64-bit code and 32-bit code should be installed in the correct places and accordingly correct the registry trees.
