Writing to HKLM on 64bit OS

Hi Guys,

I'm writing an installation where I need to copy a registry key from the HKLM Wow6432Node to the equivalent 64bit section of the registry.

e..g
Read from HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\MySoftware\Language

write to HKLM\SOFTWARE\MySoftware\Language

It appears that the installer always read and writes to the Wow6432Node?

Any tips?

Cheers,
Simulation

It's all in the manual.



(hint: You could've searched that page for '64', for example.)
