Printer driver install on windows 7 X64
I added a command on my installer to install a printer.using execute command:
$SYSTEM$$/$rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ii /f "$USER_INSTALL_DIR$$/$driver.INF"
This works fine in 32 bit (windows 7 x86) but when run in 64 bit i got this error "Windows can't open Add
Printer.Operation could not be completed. (Error 0x0000007e)."
The funny thing is if I enter this command line from a command windows it works.
Any idea what wrong?
Tried to changed the $System$ with $System_64$ also $SysWOW64$ still same error.
TIA..

Have you tried searching what the error means? Using Google I could find this, for instance:
