I believe that when you install the 64-bit version of the .NET Framework 2.0 SDK you get a choice whether you want to launch the .NET 2.0 Configuration Tool in 32-bit or 64-bit. When you launch the tool in 64-bit the MSI packages created should reference the 64-bit version of caspol.exe. Hi Matt, I experimented with this this morning, as I have never done this before.

As part of my clickonce XBAP (Browser Hosted) application, I needed to alter the Code Access Security to allow my application to have the FullTrust permission. I created an MSI containing all of the necessary ammendments using the ".NET Framework 2.0 Configuration" UI - "Create Deployment Package" tool. However, the resulting MSI only actions the settings on the 32 bit CASPOL not the 64 bit. And since you cant change the build architecture on a browser hosted XBAP application, it will run as 64 bit on 64bit OSes. Is it possible to create an MSI for the 64 bit version in a similar way? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Kind Regards, Matt Hello David,
