> Hi,
>
> I'm new to Wix and i try to make an installer for .net application
> targeting x64.
> For my first steps, using 'Wix toolset vs2019 extensions' , i succeeded to
> create a msi file, but this msi always installs the app in the 'Program
> Files (x86)' directory.
> I tried to set the x64 in the configuration manager of VS, in the
> properties of the setup project, but this always the x86 that remains
> selected.
>
> Someone can help?

> regards
