By default the {win}system32is redirected to {win}SysWOW64 by the OS for 32-bit applications (like Inno Setup).
You can override this using 64bit flag:
64bit: Causes the {sys} constant to map to the 64-bit System directory when used in the Source and DestDir parameters, .. This is the default behavior in a 64-bit mode install.
Or enable 64-bit mode install.
In 64-bit mode:
- The System32 path returned by the
{sys}constant maps to the 64-bit System directory by default when used in the [Dirs], [Files], [InstallDelete], [Run], [UninstallDelete], and [UninstallRun] sections. This is because Setup/Uninstall temporarily disables WOW64 file system redirection when files/directories are accessed by those sections. Elsewhere, System32 and{sys}map to the 32-bit System directory, as is normal in a 32-bit process.
As mentioned is all the references above, you should better use {sys} constant instead of {win}system32:
{sys} The system's System32 directory.
Mafia 3 vehicle upgrades. For example: If you used {sys}CTL3D32.DLL on an entry and the system's Windows System directory is 'C:WINDOWSSYSTEM', Setup or Uninstall will translate it to 'C:WINDOWSSYSTEMCTL3D32.DLL'.
On 64-bit Windows, by default, the System32 path returned by this constant maps to the directory containing 32-bit system files, just like on 32-bit Windows. (This can be overridden by enabling 64-bit mode.)
