You are actually seeing the contents of a directory called C:\WINDOWS\SYSWOW64 and not C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32
If you look in Explorer (which is running in 64-bit mode) at C:\WINDOWS\SYSWOW64 then you will notice that it contains the same contents as what you see when you look at C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 in FCW (which is running in 32 bit). As a test, using explorer, copy a file into SYSWOW64 and you will see it under C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 when you look with FCW. This isn't a bug in FCW .. it is a redirection that Windows is doing behind the scenes. The 32-bit binaries are all under C:\WINDOWS\SYSWOW64 and the 64-bit ones are under C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32. It is to prevent 32-bit apps trying to call 64-bit binaries and vice versa. Can't have both in the same directory, so Windows does the translation.

There is a very strange problem with directory listing on Win2003SP2-64bit. At the folder C:\WINDOWS\system32 FCW shows up a folder named "Drivers" (note the capital-D) with nearly no contents. Explorer shows a folder named "drivers" with the usual content known from 32-bit e.g. "etc". What is the cause and how can we avoid the problem? _______________________________________________ Fc mailing list Fc@silk.apana.org.au http://silk.apana.org.au/mailman/listinfo/fc Bug Tracker: http://bugs.silk.apana.org.au/
