I don't think you can have one msi for both 32 and 64 bit machines. But you can have a single .wxs file which produces two different .msi files when compiled on different architectures. It does this by reading environment variables or system variables.(PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE). On Mon, Dec 28, 2009

Yes. Very sensible. Just keep an eye on the GUIDs for a while until you are sure it all works. John Aldridge wrote: > I asked... > > >> From: John Aldridge [mailto:j...@jjdash.demon.co.uk] >> >> Are there any guidelines for how best to create both a 32 and a 64 bit >> installer from a single

Hi, 1) Is it possible to create one MSI for both 32bit and 64 bit OS 2) If yes my queries are 1) In my case, except 2 binaries, remaining all binaries are same. The binaries which are different are service32.exe for 32bit and service64.exe for 64 bit So I added win64="yes" for service64.exe.
