installer putting file in SysWOW64 instead of System32
Posted: 22 Jan 2016, 03:48
I have a simple need for an installer to copy a DLL file into C:\Windows\System32 on Windows 10 and add some registry keys.
However specifying the Default Installation Path in InstallForge as "C:\Windows\System32" or "<system>\" for the DLL does not work. Instead, in either case the DLL is copied to C:\Windows\SysWOW64 which does not work for my application.
How can I resolve this? I'm on Windows 10 Pro, 64 bit Version 1511 Nov 2015 update.
Thank you for your prompt help on the matter!
