Windows X32 but returning X64 due to processor...

[Kogmedia]

Hello,

I am making a script to install dotnet framework

Anyone know a UDF or a workaround?

Thanks

@OSTYPE will not work?

@OSTYPE will not work?

OSTYPE returns WIN32_NT on VISTA X64

OSTYPE returns WIN32_NT on XP 32

doesn't 64 bit Vista use a different registry editor.... 64 bit regedit.... can you detect the presence of this file? (Im sorry if im no help, I do not have Vista (thank god))

[Kogmedia]

Vista uses standard regedit ...

I don't know where the key for OSArch is held in registry

My work around...

If StringInStr(@ProgramFilesDir,"(x86)") Then 
    $OSVesion = 'X64'; OS is 64bit
Else
    $OSVesion = 'X86' OS is 32bit
EndIf

MsgBox(0,"",$OSVesion)

I don't see that ever detecting 64 bit like that

[DW1]

Don't know how to get it to AutoIt but this does what you want

BOOL Is64BitProcessRunningOn64BitWindows()

{

return TRUE;

}

____________________

ALSO

--------------------------------

BOOL Is64BitWindows()

{

#if defined(_WIN64)

return TRUE; // 64-bit programs run only on Win64

#elif defined(_WIN32)

// 32-bit programs run on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows

// so must sniff

BOOL f64 = FALSE;

return IsWow64Process(GetCurrentProcess(), &f64) && f64;

#else

return FALSE; // Win64 does not support Win16

#endif

}

I think IsWow64Process() resides in kernel32.dll
