Hi, i need to change a configuration file in C:\Windows\System32\inetsvr\config but Installshield changes/creates it in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\inetsvr\config. For basic testing i printed [SystemFolder] and [System64Folder] in the welcome dialog and it allways printed C:\Windows\SysWOW64. How can i get IS2010 to change the file in C:\Windows\System32\inetsvr\config instead of C:\Windows\SysWOW64\inetsvr\config ?
According to the help file documentation [SystemFolder] can resolve to the c:\windows\SysWoW64 folder on 64bit systems.You could try using the [WindowsFolder] and going from there if you really need it in the System32 directory.
Just keep in mind that the System Folder is c:\windows\SysWoW64 as far as the operating system is concerned so unless your application is using hard coded paths, it may resolve differently at run time.
To use System64Folder, the component referencing this path needs to be set to 64-bit and then the entire package (template summary) will need to be marked as 64-bit. Otherwise, Windows Installer will resolve System64Folder to the 32-bit redirected location.
