    Mike,

    You are using the Professional Edition. Please download and install the Developer Edition flagship The Professional Edition does not support 64-bit installations.

    Hi Andrea,

    Thanks for your quick response. I think that will probably do the trick but I'm unable to test the project as I get the following compilation error. I'm evaluating the professional version which I downloaded from here ->

    I'm I unable to evaluate installations targetting 64-bit windows.

    Many thanks,

    Mike,

    I have attached a "quick and dirty" 3264BIT.sb6 demo project. The "hybrid" installer runs in 64-bit mode on x64 machines. It installs Image1.bmp into the (32-bit) c:\program files(x86) and Image2.bmp into the (64-bit) c:\program files folder

    See script lines 35-39 and 72+

    Does this help?

    32/64 -bit Hybrid installations.

    Hi,
    We are currently evaluating SetupBuilder. Our 'package' needs to deploy 32 and 64-bit binaries.

    I've changed the installer type to "Windows 32/64-bit Hybrid' but I can't figure out how to target the two "Program Files" directories (typically "C:\Program Files (x86)" and "C:\Program Files").

    I can right click on a feature in the files and folders pane and select add CSIDL. I don't get the option to add CSIDL_PROGRAM_FILESX86 which microsoft define here :

    http://technet2.microsoft.com/Window....mspx?mfr=true

    Could somebody suggest a method.

    Many thanks,

    Mike Doris
