Hello

"Therefore you can create hybrid installers as long as you dont need to
install files to the "System64Folder"."

And how do you exactly do that? 

Say you have a 32 bit component which needs to install correctly on both 32 bit 
and 64 bit. Specifying the component as a "x64 component" will suffice or you 
need a hybrid which tells a component to write "there" if 32 and "there" if 64?

thanks

Hi Sean,

>If I'm adding items to the registry in the hkey_classes_root hive do I need
both a 32-bit and 64-bit installer.

Where the registry keys are going is component dependent.

You can simply mark a component as x64 Bit component and those registry keys
will be written to the "x64 View".

Therefore you can create hybrid installers as long as you dont need to
install files to the "System64Folder".

as far as i know, as long as you aren't using the "-scom" parameter they
should be automatically harvested.
