Re: [WiX-users] 64 bit version of MS build cannot find the WIX toolset
Had similar issues when using an x64 MSBuild to build our WiX solutions. What we did to solve these issues: a) Reg key to the x86 path of the Wix Toolset SDK in Progam Files (x86). Should be a reg file containing something like (depending on your install paths + WiX Version): Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\AssemblyFolders\WiX 3.6] @="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\WiX Toolset v3.6\\SDK\\" AFAIR this is only needed to build DTF CAs. b) Force the WiX Build to run as x86 process -- Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!

Re: [WiX-users] 64 bit version of MS build cannot find the WIX toolset
There's an issue open requesting WiX to write the AssemblySearchPaths in 64-bit hive. That isn't done today.

Re: [WiX-users] 64 bit version of MS build cannot find the WIX toolset
MSBuild uses the AssemblySearchPaths property to determine the locations where it searches for assembly references. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/bb629394.aspx You could either set the HintPath for the reference OR you could add the location of Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll to AssemblySearchPaths with something like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.6\bin; $(AssemblySearchPaths) Note that you could possibly shadow other assemblies you depend on if they exist in WiX's bin directory (or whatever appropriate directory you use). My guess as to why 32-bit MSBuild (on the command line, not through Visual Studio) is that AssemblySearchPaths must be getting set with 32-bit only path. Perhaps something like C:\Program Files\WiX Toolset v3.6\bin which would only resolve for 32-bit processes... You can use the /verbose:diagnostic command line option to show you property values and a lot of other stuff you never cared about too!
