Hello folks,

confirming.

For consistency/compatibility with native Windows tool it should support both,
'/reg:32' and '/reg:64' command line parameters.

...

   /reg:32   : Force REG.exe to write to the 32-bit registry location
   /reg:64   : Force REG.exe to write to the 64-bit registry location

             By default a 32-bit process (such as an SCCM client or a 32 bit
MSI installer)
             on a 64 bit machine, will use a 32-bit view of the registry:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node
             Use the /REG switch to over-ride this. See Q305097 for more
details.
