Not sure this applies to all versions of windows that can be either 64 or
32 bit, but..
It might work to see if: there is a folder "program files (x86)" (not
positive that is the correct way to specify it, not at windows right this
sec)
If the folder is there its 64 bit, if not its 32 bit.

On Windows, is there a variable / shell command / registry entry my app
can look at to see whether the OS is 32- or 64-bit? It would be nice if
you could do it the same way across Vista, 7, 8; but I'll settle for
what exists.
On an exclusively 64-bit system you'll know it's 64-bit because LiveCode
won't run. ;)
If it has 32-bit compatibility installed, what should the return value be
for a function that asks whether the OS is 32-bit or 64-bit?
This might be a good thread for the improve list to work out syntax for a
proposed new function.
