Create 32 bit AND 64 bit registry keys

Hi,

I have a single installer that installs an Office add-in which works with both 32-bit and 64 bit versions of Office.

I want to install a registry key that will install in both the 32 bit and 64 bit portions of the registry regardless of whether the OS is 32 or 64 bit, can you advise me how to do that.

I tried reading your tutorial but I don't think it helps in this case.

Thanks,
LJ

Re: Create 32 bit AND 64 bit registry keys

Hello,

Please take a look on this How-To article that describes the implementation of your scenario : How to install different registry entries based on the Operating System (32/64-bit)?

If you want to install the keys on both 32-bit ad 64-bit machines, don't condition the components associated with the two keys. In this way both will be installed.

Just let me know if you have any questions or doubts.

Best regards,
