How are you gathering the keys? More than likely, it's through the registry. In that case, when on a 64 bit machine, MS apps are installed in the 64 bit key and 32 bit key when on a 32 bit OS.

You'll need to query the appropriate keys more than likely.

But, in order for us to help further, more detailed information must be provided.

yes its through the registry its just that when i debug it on x64 it will show my key but when on x86 it wont but it will show x86 programs product key i wont them both to display no matter what if it a 64 or 32 bit computer and how what kind of details???

I just told you. There are two main keys for applications. In reality, there's like 6 or something. But, there are two keys you need to worry about (most likely):

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Without knowing which key you're querying, I can't give you specific advice. I'm only assuming you're querying one of these keys and not the other.

The first key stores most programs that are 32 bit and the latter stores most applications that are 64 bit.

okies dude here is the information mate
These Keys Are From The Code Reg

XPVista7ProductID.Text = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion", "ProductID", Nothing)
XPVista7ProductID2.Text = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\DefaultProductKey", "ProductID", Nothing)

"I want them both show up on either platform"

Platform = 32 bit or 64 bit

if thats possible so what do i do next and thank you for helping me!

Um... I thought you were trying to grab the key of an application. But those reg keys don't apply to apps. So, are you trying to find the product key to Windows?

[pillhead2007]

yes the product key for windows 7 :

ive got the product key and write the decoder just that if my app was running on x86 it would display fine cause it only displays x86 product keys then but cause ive just upgraded to x64 today you see and and if i run my app in x86 still then my product key for x64 wont dispay and ms web browser flash wont work ......................You got any ideas ..................... o would i have to build another app for x86 and 1 for x64 ???

thanks
