Wrong registry key hive for x64
Posted: 2021-06-16 07:17
Hello,
I think there's a mistake between the Registry hive used by Filezilla 3.54.1.
When you install the x64 version, the registry hive used is :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\FileZilla Client
But it should be in the x64 hive :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\FileZilla Client
The install path is correct for x64 :
C:\Program Files\FileZilla FTP Client
and x86 :
C:\Program Files (x86)\FileZilla FTP Client
(so this way, we're able to install both x86 & x64 version on the same computer. (but we should add the x64 string in the Add/remove program)
