Rich, thanks for the report.

 > I had to manually edit the path to point to the 64 bit version

This is strange since the new installation should update the path. 
Actually I'm confused with dual (32 and 64 bit) registry in WIN64 with 
WOW64: if for example the path is defined in both, which one is used? 
The 32bit install updates the path in 32bit registry, the 64bit install 
updates the path in 64bit registry: does the 64bit path have a 
precedence? From what you wrote it seems that it does not...
