Hi, Marcel.
I can’t help with CS5 or Photoshop specifically because I’ve never run either of them. (Closest I come is with Photoshop Elements.) But for all applications installed in 64-bit Windows (including WinXP x64 and Vista x64, as well as Win7 x64), the default location for a 64-bit app is the CProgram Files folder. For a 32-bit app in 64-bit Windows, the default is to the folder that does not exist in 32-bit Windows: CProgram Files (x86). Note the “(x86)â€, which is supposed to signify the Intel x86 family of CPUs (8086, 80286, Pentium, etc.).
Another way that SHOULD work is good ol’ Help | About. In IE8, for example, the 32-bit version runs by default in a 64-bit Windows. Click IE’s Help | About Internet Explorer; if you see “64-bit Edition†following “Version 8.0.7600.16385â€, then you are running the 64-bit edition of IE8; if it doesn’t mention “bitness†at all, then you are running the 32-bit edition. I don’t know if Adobe’s apps are this informative; please let us know if you find out.

Of course, you're right, Frank.
What I meant was one had the choice.
Hoewever, could you please enlighten me on one thing: How do I know which is
which once (and if) it's installed on both 32 and 64 bit. All I get is
Photoshop in the uninstall program. I'm asking because I re-ran the
installation and saw the 64 bit was the second one (the one below).
Secondly, Is there a merit in having both 32 and 64 bit?
Third. If I want only the 64 bit, can I unisntall the whole thing and
re-install, even if it's an upgrade and my CS3 is on anothe machins now?
Since this is a Win thread, you may answer me directly.
Thanks for taking the time to answer.
Marcel
