Incorrect Registry Entry in 64Bit OS (Small images attached)

[NewsArchive]

Hi All,

SB 7.0.2762

During the install I am allowing the user to select locations for the
program files and the data files. I then want to record these locations in a
registry key so my app can retrieve the paths.

I have inserted a request in the Registry Visualizer to have SB create two
entries in the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CYA" key. ( See registry1.png)

When attempting to install on Windows 7 - 64Bit, SB refuses to create the
key in the target I have specified. Instead it is creating it in
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\CYA" ( See registry2.png )

My application is attempting to retrieve the path information from the
registry location that I asked SB to put it in. Of course it isn't there and
it fails.

It appears SB is ignoring my request to create this key where *I want it*
and is putting it where it thinks it should be.

Is this expected behavior?

Thanks for any help.
