thanks Rainer,

 The real system32 folder which contains the 64-bit binaries (damn, which

 That's why you need to invoke the 64-bit cscript.exe from a real 64-bit 
 process
 (I used cmd.exe).

i didn't know about folder redirection...

 
 Alternatively you can use 64-bit WPKG client which will be able to launch the
 real 64-bit process from system32\cscript.exe. In this case no wrapper is 
 needed
 at all and wpkg.js will be able to access all 64-bit paths and registry 
 entries.
 

i don't use wpkg client, i am activating wpkg.js thru GPO:
anyway your suggestion is truly the easyest viable alternative, i  will
follow it.
it will be not so practical setting the layout of cmds to a minimum size
or to switch  exec with run in wrapper.js.
i will be exploring for something like rundll* hack.

thanks again

[wpkg-users] x64 - x86 mixed evironment-how to get rid of wrapper.js

[Riccardo Marcon]

hi all,

i am going to switch to last stable wpkg to handle winxp / winxp x64
environement: i don't want to use wrapper.js since it runs wpkg thru
cmd.exe and this leaves cmd.exe window exposed to users. so users can
feel free to close cmd.exe window...

in a test environement i solved this by invoking explicitly proper
cscript.exe (32/64 bits) straight from wpkg-start.bat, as in the
following line:

%WINDIR%\System32\cscript.exe %WPKGROOT%\wpkg.js /synchronize /quiet
/nonotify

so far all the tries i performed succeed...

is it enough ?
any hint would be appreciated.

thanks

riccardo
