Quote - On computers that run a 64 bit Windows (XP64, Vista, and Windows 7), Program Files is for 64 bit programs like Vue 6 Infinite 64 bit and higher versions. 32 bit code will not run from this folder. You have to install to Program Files (X86), which will automatically invoke WoW (Windows on Windows) 32 bit emulator.
There is nothing "magical" about either folder, placement of EXEs in either is just a convention (otherwise installing in other non-"Program Files" folders wouldn't work), the EXE itself has information in the header which determines the subsystem it runs under.
