Actually, there is at least one such place, as I said in my original post:
%windir%\system32 and %windir%\syswow64, but I'm not sure that's good enough
for me.

Actually, I can make my question very specific: is there a well-known place
in the registry where I can specify the path to my unmanaged DLLs so that
LoadLibrary will search this path, and which gets redirected under wow64 so
that I can put the path to the 32-bit DLLs under the corresponding key in
the 32-bit view of the registry?  It seems to me that there should be such a
key.  I just hope the designers of Win64 thought the same...

Regards,

Ron
