Software Restiction Policy on 64 bit advice please...

[kennysarmy]

I have a software restriction policy on our current windows 7 32 bit estate one of the unrestricted areas is:

 

%HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ProgramFilesDir%

 

However it seems during testing that this does not allow for the "Program Files (x86)" directory.

 

Is there a similar %String% for this folder?

 

Cheers

Recognized Environment Variables

 

Its just %programfiles(x86)%

Can you not just add the hard path? I know it is nice to use variables but it's really not likely to be anything other than Program files(x86)

The answer is:

 

%HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ProgramFilesDir (x86)%
