Wow64Redirection On/Off

By default, 32bits application cannot write anything in the Program Files folder for 64bits applications. Windows automatically redirects file operations of 32-bits applications to the Program Files (x86) folder. This command allows you to enable or disable redirection if you want to write some files into the 64-bits Program Files folder or 64-bits System folder. For example, you want to install some files in 64-bits Program Files. In this case, enter the command 64xRedirection State: Off and the command Installation Files with the necessary files and destination path #progfiles64#\My Application. After that, enter the command 64xRedirection State: On.
