Customizable installation folder for x64 & x86

[hypetsch]

Hi,

maybe this is a dump question but we hope someone can point us in he right direction:

We have recently upgraded our WiX 3 installer to WiX 4 and also changed from x86 to a x64 msi. The installer deploys x86 and x64 modules. Our directory structure does currently look like this to satisfy the requirement "This 32BitComponent xxxxx uses 64BitDirectory":

      <StandardDirectory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
         <Directory Id="MANUFACTURER_FOLDER" Name="company">
            <Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="product">
               <Directory Id="BIN_FOLDER" Name="Bin">
               </Directory>
            </Directory>
         </Directory>
      </StandardDirectory>

      <StandardDirectory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder">
         <Directory Id="MANUFACTURER64_FOLDER" Name="company">
            <Directory Id="INSTALLDIR64" Name="product">
               <Directory Id="BIN64_FOLDER" Name="Bin">
               </Directory>
            </Directory>
         </Directory>
      </StandardDirectory>

The msi does deploy modules to their corresponding folder.

The issue we have is that, when customizing the INSTALLDIR with the InstallDirDlg and

<Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" Value="INSTALLDIR" />

it only changes the x86-directory which is somehow clear but we would want that also the INSTALLDIR64 gets modified when the folder is customized. Is this possible? Or would we have to follow another approach?

The selected installation folder is retained via registry:

      <Property Id="CURRENTINSTALLDIR" Secure="yes">
         <RegistrySearch Id="RestoreInstallDir" Root="HKLM" Key="Software\company\product" Name="InstallDir" Type="raw" />
      </Property>
      <SetDirectory Id="INSTALLDIR" Value="[CURRENTINSTALLDIR]" Sequence="both" Condition="CURRENTINSTALLDIR" />

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

We have changed our installer back to no longer using different folders for the x64 & x86 components.
