Registry Keys

When 32-bit applications such as the PE hub are installed on 64-bit machines, any associated registry keys are created in their own ‘32-bit’ subkey. So while registry values for the Exchange 2007 and 2010 server agents are created in the \SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates subkey, registry values for the PE hub are created in the \SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ComputerAssociates subkey.

64-bit registry keys

CA DLP registry keys, 64-bit machines

1 Exchange 2007 server agent registry key.

2 PE hub registry key.

Note: Why ‘WOW64’? On a 64-bit Windows operating system, there is an emulation of a 32-bit operating system called ‘Windows on Windows 64’, or WOW64.
