How to determine if user has Office 2010 32 bit vs 64

Question

I need to branch an installation process based on whether the user has Office 2010 32 bit or 64 bit. How do I determine this? Is there a registry key I should read?

Answer 1

Hello,

To determine if office 2010 is 32 bit or 64 bit, we could check a registry key named Bitness. For more information, please refer to this article: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee681792.aspx.

Also here is a resource with a same question you could refer to: Detect whether Office 2010 is 32bit or 64bit via the registry.

Given solution at link:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee681792.aspx. is applicable only when we have outlook installed on a m/c. Suppose outlook is not installed on a m/c then how can we detect whethe office 2010 is 32 or 64 bit?
