Hello Russ, 

As I could see in your Product.wxs, your target folder always will be the folder for 32-bit files:
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder" Name="PUC-Lua">

I think you should change it as <Directory Id=" ProgramFiles64Folder"> for 64-bit installer. 
Or use the Wix variable which you already defined: <Directory Id="$(var.PlatformProgramFilesFolder)">.

It doesn't matter which variables are defined in Include.wxi if you don't use them. 

Best Regards,
	Dzmitry Razhanski.

Subject: [wix-users] WIX Installer for Lua 5.3

Hello,

First, thanks for the great tool. I lament the lack of time I've had to play with it over the years. Recently, I've had the desire to see Lua become a little easier for the average person to start using on Windows. I've been able to get Lua 5.3 to build under VS 2017, and have created an installer. I have followed various SO references and am almost finished creating a 32/64 bit build using VS configurations.

My 32 Bit installer works but I am getting the following errors when building the 64 bit installer (Only pasted one):

Error ICE80: This 64BitComponent lua.exe uses 32BitDirectory luabindir PUC-Lua Installer C:\Users\russh\Git\PUC-Lua-VS2017-Solution\Visual
Studio\PUC-Lua Installer\Files.wxs 7

The installer files are here:

https://github.com/RussellHaley/PUC-Lua-VS2017-Solution/tree/master/lua-5.3.4/Visual%20Studio/PUC-Lua%20Installer

I have used preprocessor definitions in the Include.wxs and Product.wxs respectively to change the luabindir... I think.

Any advice would be grand. I will post code snippets and any other requested output if it's helpful.

Thanks,

Russ
