InstallShield: Project Design To Target Both 32-Bit and 64-Bit Systems

How to: Approaches to support both 32-bit and 64-bit installations within one InstallShield project. Go through these topics in InstallShield help manual first to understand the concept of Release Flags and how to use it along with Features Design, Template Summary Property and Conditional Launching.


We’re using InstallShield Spring 2012 Professional 32-bit version - Basic MSI projects. Therefore, there are three things to note down to help you understand InstallScript functions better. Take Gateway as the sample project to support full capacity of 32-bit and 64-bit installations. Here are some screenshots to describe the design. Design Release Configuration, Template Summary and Release Flags

Design Features

Design Components

Generic components

All components which can be used for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms will be shared through feature association.


Your project is now ready to build both 32-bit and 64-bit packages. Any upcoming request during the product life cycle, you just need to adjust it with your components and features to pick the best slots. I have been running my eight projects for a year so far. No trouble due to this design has been caught yet.

Have fun with software packaging!
