The -arch command-line argument is what sets the default value of @Win64 on
things like the RegistrySearch and Component elements, not the
Package/@Platform attribute.
That is a doc bug. Please file it so we get it corrected.

> The default value depends on the value of the Package/@Platform attribute:
> if the @Platform attribute value is 'x86', the default @Win64 attribute
> value is 'no'; otherwise, the default value is 'yes'.

> But my tests with WIX 3.6.3303 showed that default is always 'no'

> Package/@Platform
> value 'x64' and RegistrySearch element without @Win64 attribute. I compile

> not contain msidbLocatorType64bit set.
