I assume that you built without the patch applied. Does it also work
with the patch ?
This is the relevant section from the KB article:
"""
When you install a new program or when you run a program on a Windows x64 Edition computer, registry
calls made by 64-bit programs access the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software registry sub key without
redirection. WOW64 intercepts registry calls to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software that are made by 32-bit
programs, and then redirects them to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432node sub key.
"""
Since VS2008 is a 32-bit application, the registry keys are written
to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432node branch.
64-bit applications such as Python AMD64 don't see this indirection,
so they have to explicitly look in that branch to find VS2008 settings.
I checked the registry on the machine and indeed the VS2008 keys are
only available under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432node branch. |
