I have several C# Windows service. One insists on running as a 64 bit process.

This wouldn’t be a problem except that I migrated all shared configuration, to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Config

As a result the service fails to read the config, and for the moment I am having to duplicate the shared configuration (which defeats the point of moving it to machine.config)

I have changed the build configuration from x64 to x86, and re-installed but the service still runs in 64 bit mode.
