Question

I have one 64 bit applicatoin , which uses some 32 bit graphic exes.
While i am doing createprocess for that 32 bit exes , its looks for registry path in “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\MyApp” .
But as my application is 64 bit , all registry entries is in
“HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MyApp”.
As result creatprocess fot 32 bit graphic exe fails.
My Question is that “Is there any way so those 32 bit exe also looks for there registry path in default 64 bit registry path instead of wow6432node ?”

P.S. I cant convert those 32 bit exe into 64 bit as I don’t have the source code for those 32bit graphic exes .

Please provide me any help to resolve this issue.

Regards..
