Deploying 64-bit Applications

Both ClickOnce and Windows Installer deployment support the installation of applications on 64-bit platforms. The target platforms are x86 for 32-bit platforms, x64 for machines supporting the AMD64 and EM64T instruction sets, and Itanium for the 64-bit Itanium processor.

For procedures describing how to set up your deployment, see the following topics:
