Am I having a senior moment (aka a Glenn moment)? I swear I have been using %programfiles% in my scripts correctly and now it seems that it is displaying the wrong value. When I use %programfiles% now on a 64bit windows, it displays the x86 variant. I've tried changing WOW64FileRedirection to on and off, and I seem to remember Ruud saying the WOW64FileRedirection does not effect the program files directory. I tried an older version of Kix and its doing it too... so maybe I've been off all this time... wth?
