Laserfiche 7.1.2, Laserfiche 7.2.1, Scanning 7.1.2, Scanning 7.2.1

Summary

Windows x64 automatically places software registry information for 32-bit applications under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node." For Laserfiche, this means that any registry values normally found under "HEKY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Laserfiche" will now be located under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Laserfiche."

Laserfiche 7.1.2 and Laserfiche 7.2.1 will function as normal on Windows XP x64 Edition and Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition. However, if you wish to make changes to the Laserfiche-specific registry values, be aware that they will be located under the "Wow6432Node" subkey.
