Hi, iam using 32 bit installshield to package 64 bit binaries. everything works fine but default location is pointing to c:\program files(x86)\companyname\productname. even though i've selected 64bit at every possible place, somehow it is defaulting to x86 programfiles folder. Any kind of help would be appreciated...

A: 

someone solved this issue by using [ProgramFilesFolder]\..\Program Files\companyname\productname. won't work for localized paths, though.

see also Installing files to x64 “Program Files” from x86 msi.

Thanks for the help, i've seen that and tried. but some how it is failing with "error 1324: invalid chars in path", it says that ..\ is a invalid path :(
