X64 Compatibility Problem

Post by crystalidea »

I have WinXP 64bit.
Look at the size of C:\Windows\regedit.exe in salamander.
After that copy this file to c:\regedit.exe. Compare size.

The problem is that Wow64 is extremely "smart", it manages to subsitute the x64 regedit with x86 one.

So, there's no way to access this executable in salamander.

It's because AS isn't 64bit application, yet. Look at C:\Windows\SysWOW64\regedit.exe vs. C:\Windows\regedit.exe, this is probably what are you looking for.
