picking program files in 64 bit

[ur]

My exe should run in both 32 and 64 OS, so I am compiling it as 32 bit exe.

But in 64 bit, it is picking C:\Program files (x86) for @ProgramFilesDir.

Can anyone suggest how to use C:\Program files\ in both 32 and 64 bit OS.

There are multiple ways for this. Here is one :

Func _GetNativeProgramFilesDir()
    Local $sNativeProgramFilesDir = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion", "ProgramW6432Dir")
    Return ( @error ? @ProgramFilesDir : $sNativeProgramFilesDir)
EndFunc

can also be done with EnvGet or else...
