Use Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFilesX86 instead of Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFiles. Both values should be defined on a 32-bit machine.

In the custom EXE, we use * Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFiles)* to execute some custom logic on our files installed in the ProgramFiles folder path. The issue is on 64bit machine: 32bit MSI installs files to C:\Program Files (x86)\ custom EXE runs logic in C:\Program Files\ ... we think this is because it was built for "Any CPU" platform In the <CustomAction > node, we tried to set Win64="no" so that it runs the custom EXE as if it were on 32bit machine. However, still the custom EXE runs logic in C:\Program Files\ instead of C:\Program Files (x86)\ Do you have any suggestions ?
