Now that Office also comes in a 64bit install, where in the registry do you find out if the version of Office installed is 32bit or 64bit?
问题:
回答1:
From TechNet article on 64-bit editions of Office 2010:
If you have installed Office 2010 including Microsoft Outlook 2010, Outlook sets a registry key named Bitness of type REG_SZ on the computer on which it is installed. The Bitness registry key indicates whether the Outlook 2010 installation is 32-bit or 64-bit. This may be useful to administrators who are interested in auditing computers to determine the installed versions of Office 2010 in their organization.
- Registry path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook
- if you have installed Office 2013 then use this Registry path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook
- Registry key: Bitness
- Value: either x86 or x64
and elsewhere in the same article:
Starting with Office 2010, Outlook is available as a 32-bit application and a 64-bit application. The version (bitness) of Outlook that you choose depends on the edition of the Windows operating system (32-bit or 64-bit) and the edition of Office 2010 (32- or 64-bit) that is installed on the computer, if Office is already installed on that computer.
Factors that determine the feasibility of installing a 32-bit or a 64-bit version of Outlook include the following:
- You can install 32-bit Office 2010 and 32-bit Microsoft Outlook 2010 on a supported 32-bit or 64-bit edition of the Windows operating system. You can install the 64-bit version of Office 2010 and 64-bit Outlook 2010 only on a supported 64-bit operating system.
- The default installation of Office 2010 on a 64-bit edition of the Windows operating system is 32-bit Office 2010.
- The bitness of an installed version of Outlook is always the same as the bitness of Office 2010, if Office is installed on the same computer. That is, a 32-bit version of Outlook 2010 cannot be installed on the same computer on which 64-bit versions of other Office 2010 applications are already installed, such as 64-bit Microsoft Word 2010 or 64-bit Microsoft Excel 2010. Similarly, a 64-bit version of Outlook 2010 cannot be installed on the same computer on which 32-bit versions of other Office applications are already installed.

I've tested Otaku's answer and it appears that the Outlook bitness value is set even when Outlook is not installed, even though the article referenced does not clearly indicate that this would be the case.

To add to vtrz's answer, here's a function I wrote for Inno Setup:
const
{ Constants for GetBinaryType return values. }
SCS_32BIT_BINARY = 0;
SCS_64BIT_BINARY = 6;
{ There are other values that GetBinaryType can return, but we're }
{ not interested in them. }
{ Declare Win32 function }
function GetBinaryType(lpApplicationName: AnsiString; var lpBinaryType: Integer): Boolean;
external 'GetBinaryTypeA@kernel32.dll stdcall';
function Is64BitExcelFromRegisteredExe(): Boolean;
var
excelPath: String;
binaryType: Integer;
begin
Result := False; { Default value - assume 32-bit unless proven otherwise. }
{ RegQueryStringValue second param is '' to get the (default) value for the key }
{ with no sub-key name, as described at }
{ http://stackoverflow.com/questions/913938/ }
if IsWin64() and RegQueryStringValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\excel.exe',
'', excelPath) then begin
{ We've got the path to Excel. }
try
if GetBinaryType(excelPath, binaryType) then begin
Result := (binaryType = SCS_64BIT_BINARY);
end;
except
{ Ignore - better just to assume it's 32-bit than to let the installation }
{ fail. This could fail because the GetBinaryType function is not }
{ available. I understand it's only available in Windows 2000 }
{ Professional onwards. }
end;
end;
end;

Regret to say, but Both Otacku's and @clatonh's methods aren't working for me - neither have Outlook Bitness nor {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} in registry (for 64-bit Office without Outlook installed).
The only way I have found, though, not via the registry, is to check bitness for one of the Office executables with the use of the Windows API function GetBinaryType (since Windows 2000 Professional).
For example, you can check the bitness of Winword.exe, which path is stored under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\Winword.exe.
Here is the MFC code fragment:
CRegKey rk;
if (ERROR_SUCCESS == rk.Open(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\App Paths\\Winword.exe",
KEY_READ)) {
CString strWinwordPath;
DWORD dwSize = MAX_PATH;
if (ERROR_SUCCESS == rk.QueryStringValue(strWinwordPath,
strWinwordPath.GetBuffer(MAX_PATH), &dwSize)) {
strWinwordPath.ReleaseBuffer();
DWORD dwBinaryType;
if (::GetBinaryType(strWinwordPath, &dwBinaryType)) {
if (SCS_64BIT_BINARY == dwBinaryType) {
// Detected 64-bit Office
} else {
// Detected 32-bit Office
}
} else {
// Failed
}
} else {
// Failed
}
} else {
// Failed
}

Attention: querying the bitness of the Outlook Application does NOT reliably work if called in .NET environment.
Here, we use GetBinaryType() in a DLL that can be called by any application:
- If the host application is 64 bit C/C++, GetBinaryType() returns SCS_32BIT_BINARY.
- If the host application is 64 bit .NET (we tested "AnyCPU" on a 64 bit system), GetBinaryType() returns SCS_64BIT_BINARY.
With exactly the same DLL code and exactly the same Outlook binary path ("c:/Program Files (x86)/...") on the same computer.
Meaning that you might need to test the binary file yourself using "IMAGE_NT_HEADERS.FileHeader.Machine" entry.
God, I hate the incorrect return values of some Windows APIs (see also GetVersion() lie).

I found this approach:
If HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node exists then Windows is 64-bit.
If HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Office exists, then Office is 32-bit.
If HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Office does not exist, but HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office does exist, then Office is 64-bit.
If HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node does not exist, then Windows and Office are 32-bit.

You can search the registry for {90140000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}. If the bold numbers start with 0 its x86, 1 is x64
For me it was in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Registration{90140000-0057-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}

I don't have a key called bitness in either of these folders. I do have a key called "default" in both of these folders and the value is "unset" My computer came with office 2010 starter (I assume 64 bit). I removed it and tried to do a full install of 32 bit office. I keep getting the following message. the file is incompatible, check to see whether you need x86 or x64 version of the program.
any advice for me?

@clatonh: this is the path of the registry on my PC: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Registration{90140000-002A-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} and it's definitely a 32-bit-installation on a 64-bit OS.
回答11:
I've previously blindly followed the answer based on the MSDN docs. Today, this turned out to be less than required. On a machine with Office Home and Student installed, which doesn't include Outlook, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook
was present, but HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook
was not. I've now changed my code to first look for the "plain" non-Wow6432Node version. If that's present, it'll be used. If not, it will continue by looking at the Wow6432Node version. This is being checked in an Inno Setup-based installer - I don't know which APIs Inno Setup uses. If your app doesn't access the registry in the same way, you might see different results.

Here's what I was able to use in a VBscript to detect Office 64bit Outlook:
Dim WshShell, blnOffice64, strOutlookPath
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
blnOffice64=False
strOutlookPath=WshShell.RegRead("HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\outlook.exe\Path")
If WshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%") = "AMD64" And _
not instr(strOutlookPath, "x86") > 0 then
blnOffice64=True
wscript.echo "Office 64"
End If

I found the way for checking office bitness .
We can check office 365 and 2016 bitness using this registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\Configuration
Platform x86 for 32 bit.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\Configuration
Platform x64 for 64 bit.
Please check...
回答14:
I wrote this for Outlook at first. Modified it a little for Word, but it will not work on a standalone install because that key does not show the bitness, only Outlook does.
Also, I wrote it to only support current versions of Office, =>2010
I stripped all the setup and post processing...
:checkarch
IF NOT "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%"=="x86" SET InstallArch=64bit
IF "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432%"=="AMD64" SET InstallArch=64bit
IF "%InstallArch%"=="64bit" SET Wow6432Node=\Wow6432Node
GOTO :beginscript
:beginscript

I have win 7 64 bit + Excel 2010 32 bit. The registry is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Registration{90140000-002A-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE}
So this can tell bitness of OS, not bitness of Office
回答16:
I've found a secure and reliable way in my InnoSetup-based script to understand whether a particular application is 32-bit or 64-bit (in my case I needed to test Excel), by using a Win32 API function. This function is called GetBinaryType()
, it comes from `kernel32' (despite the name it comes in 32 and 64 bit flavor) and looks directly at the exe's header.
回答17:
This Wikipedia article states:
On 64-bit versions of Windows, there are two folders for application files; the
"Program Files"
folder contains 64-bit programs, and the"Program Files (x86)"
folder contains 32-bit programs.
So if the program is installed under C:\Program Files
it is a 64-bit version. If it is installed under C:\Program Files (x86)
it is a 32-bit installation.

Another way to detect the bitness of Office is to find out the typelib.
For example, to detect Outlook's bitness, write a .JS file as following:
function detectVersion()
var outlooktlib = "TypeLib\\{00062FFF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}";
var HKCR = 0x80000000;
var loc = new ActiveXObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator");
var svc = loc.ConnectServer(null,"root\\default");
var reg = svc.Get("StdRegProv");
var method = reg.Methods_.Item("EnumKey");
var inparam = method.InParameters.SpawnInstance_();
inparam.hDefKey = HKCR;
inparam.sSubKeyName = outlooktlib;
var outparam = reg.ExecMethod_(method.Name,inparam);
tlibver = outparam.sNames.toArray()[0];
method = reg.Methods_.Item("GetStringValue");
inparam = method.InParameters.SpawnInstance_();
inparam.hDefKey = HKCR;
inparam.sSubKeyName = outlooktlib + "\\" + tlibver + "\\0\\win32";
inparam.sValueName = "";
outparam = reg.ExecMethod_(method.Name,inparam);
if(outparam.sValue) return "32 bit";
method = reg.Methods_.Item("GetStringValue");
inparam = method.InParameters.SpawnInstance_();
inparam.hDefKey = HKCR;
inparam.sSubKeyName = outlooktlib + "\\" + tlibver + "\\0\\win64";
inparam.sValueName = "";
outparam = reg.ExecMethod_(method.Name,inparam);
if(outparam.sValue) return "64 bit";
return "Not installed or unrecognizable";
}
You could find out other Office component's typelib id, and replace the first line of the function for it. Here is a brief list of interesting IDs:
{4AFFC9A0-5F99-101B-AF4E-00AA003F0F07} - Access
{00020905-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} - Word
{00020813-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} - Excel
{91493440-5A91-11CF-8700-00AA0060263B} - Powerpoint
{0002123C-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} - Publisher
{0EA692EE-BB50-4E3C-AEF0-356D91732725} - OneNote 2010+
{F2A7EE29-8BF6-4A6D-83F1-098E366C709C} - OneNote 2007
All above lib id were found through the Windows SDK tool OLE-COM Object Viewer
, you could find out more lib id's by using it.
The benefit of this approach is that it works for all versions of office, and provides control on every single component in you interest. Furthermore, those keys are in the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and deeply integrated into the system, so it is highly unlikely they were not accessible even in a sandbox environment.

NOTE WELL: The detectVersion function listed above does not work. I have a 64 bit version of Office, and a separate one with 32. Both versions using this function return "32 bit".
Checking the registry manually leads to the same conclusion: both 64 and 32 bit (Office 2010 x64 and Office 2013 32 bit) report 32 bit.
Personally I think the Office team should simply write and maintain an easy to obtain registry key somewhere. All add-in's need to reference this, and currently "guessing" is a poor approach for developers to be forced to use.
回答20:
You do not need to script it. Look at this page that I stumbled across:

To summarize:
The fourth field in the productcode indicates the bitness of the product.
{BRMMmmmm-PPPP-LLLL-p000-D000000FF1CE} p000
0 for x86, 1 for x64 0-1 (This also holds true for MSOffice 2013)
回答21:
Search the registry for the install path of the office component you are interested in, e.g. for Excel 2010 look in SOFTWARE(Wow6432Node)\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel\InstallRoot. It will only be either in the 32-bit registry or the 64-bit registry not both.
回答22:
Outlook Bitness registry key does not exist on my machine.
One way to determine Outlook Bitness is by examining Outlook.exe, itself and determine if it is 32bit or 64bit.
Specifically, you can check the [IMAGE_FILE_HEADER.Machine][1] type and this will return a value indicating processor type.
For an excellent background of this discussion, on reading the PE Header of a file read this (outdated link), which states;
The IMAGE_NT_HEADERS structure is the primary location where specifics of the PE file are stored. Its offset is given by the e_lfanew field in the IMAGE_DOS_HEADER at the beginning of the file. There are actually two versions of the IMAGE_NT_HEADER structure, one for 32-bit executables and the other for 64-bit versions. The differences are so minor that I'll consider them to be the same for the purposes of this discussion. The only correct, Microsoft-approved way of differentiating between the two formats is via the value of the Magic field in the IMAGE_OPTIONAL_HEADER (described shortly).
An IMAGE_NT_HEADER is comprised of three fields:
typedef struct _IMAGE_NT_HEADERS {
DWORD Signature;
IMAGE_FILE_HEADER FileHeader;
IMAGE_OPTIONAL_HEADER32 OptionalHeader;
} IMAGE_NT_HEADERS32, *PIMAGE_NT_HEADERS32;
and you can get the c# code here.
The Magic field is at the start of the IMAGE_OPTIONAL_HEADER structure, 2 bytes at offset 24 from the start of the _IMAGE_NT_HEADERS. It has values of 0x10B for 32-bit and 0x20B for 64-bit.

Best easy way: Put the ABOUT Icon on your Office 2016 Application. Example Excel
1) Open Excel -> File -> Options -> Customize Ribbon
2) You 'll see 2 panes. Choose Commands From & Customize The Ribbon
3) From Choose Command, Select All Commands
4) From the resulting List Highlight About (Excel)
5) From the Customize The Ribbon Pain, Highlight Any Item (ex. View) where you want to put the About icon
6) Click New group at the bottom
7) Click the add button located between the two pane. DONE
Now when you click the View Tab in excel and click about you'll see 32 bit or 64 bit

I've found a much easier way. Using Powershell, we can hook Excel as a COM object.
$user = $env:UserName
$msoExcel = New-Object -ComObject Excel.Application
$msoExcel | Select-Object -Property OperatingSystem | Out-File "\\SERVER\Path\To\Dump\msoVersion-$user.txt"
exit
When requesting the OperatingSystem this way, we get strange results, have a look here. PC3 is mine.
I hope this works for you guys. Sorry for the lack of code; my scripts are mostly functional.
Edit:
Don't forget to add the code to close Excel after you're done retrieving the data.
After testing this code yesterday I had tons of Excel opening and crashing all of a sudden..
This will make sure you'll keep users and admins happy (:

If one wants to know only what bit number an installed version of Office 2010 is, then in any application of Office 2010, just click on File, then on Help. Information about version number will be listed, and next to that, in parentheses, will be either (32-bit) or (64-bit).
