Martin v. Löwis added the comment: Are you sure that the file in SysWOW64 is a 64-bit binary? On Win64, system32 contains the 64-bit DLLs, and SysWOW64 contains the 32-bit DLLs:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WoW64#Registry_and_file_system Indeed, on my system, it's exactly reversed to what Christian reports. I'm closing this report as invalid: I can't see a problem in Keith original message. *Of course* the x86 installer won't install to system32 on a Win64 system; this is correct behavior. Of course, the 64-bit installer should install to system32, this is what it should do. It should *not* install to SysWOW64. ---------- resolution: -> invalid status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16727> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
