c# - what to look out for when migrating .net apps to Windows 7, 64 bit -


we migrating our desktop windows 7, 64 bit (from 32bit windows xp). have number of winforms c# applications , trying figure out out in upgrade. there suggestions or resources @ developer point of view on out make smooth transition?

.net behaves more or less same on 32bit , 64bit os'es, there not worry there afaik.

the main things must aware of changes in os itself:

  • the registry changed, if read or write registry settings may have modify code
  • some file locations changed. have program files 64-bit apps , program files (x86) 32-bit apps instance. other system folders have moved.
  • uac may cause trouble. must test this
  • your program may not have rights write locations on file system or in registry. may have ask user permission or require user run application administrator in worst case.

those changes can think of @ moment. in cases app run fine on both os'es.
