Determining 64bit or 32bit architecture

[nobodyreally]

Hi have been looking forever for how to get the bit version of current RUNNING OS in C#. There are lots of posts out there using the IntPtr.Size and Environment.Get EnvironmentVari able("PROCESSOR _ARCHITECTURE") but these return what your software is running in (compiled to if other than AnyCPU) regardless of what the OS is running.

I knew I would find it in the win32 but could not figure out where.

Thanks for pointing to the date which allowed me to find the OSArchitecture.

Yep! I'm happy!

Cheers!

I would have thought you wanted Win32_Processor and then look at AddressWidth? I only have 32bit computers to test it on, but that object should have what you need?
