Is there a way to check whether a user is running a 64-bit or 32-bit operating system by looking in the registry?
The following site makes some suggestions: http://www.maxi-pedia.com/32+Bit+or+64+Bit+Operating+System
But the suggestions of
HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\CentralProcessor\0
and
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentCongtrolSet\Control\Session Manager\Envirornment
do not appear to exist in my registry
The registry key
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\BuildLabEx
should give you the required info
