disable(WOW64FSREDIRECTION) does not work as e3xpected

Hello,

I am building an Installscript installer for a 64-bit program using IS 2011
Premiere on a 32-bit system.

It seems that the fact that my installer is a 32-bit program is causing Registry
changes to be written to the Wow6432Node sub-key of the Registry.

Question:

Why did adding
disable(WOW64FSREDIRECTION);
to OnBegin and adding
enable(WOW64FSREDIRECTION);
to OnEnd have zero affect on the Registry changes that this installer makes?

(I am in a position where affecting the entire install is OK)

Take care,

Chris

I gather WOW64FSREDIRECTION affects only files, and not the registry. Setting REGDB_OPTIONS to include the REGDB_OPTION_WOW64_64KEY flag is probably closer to what you want.
